Working as a real estate agent for a few years I have worked with a few different brokerages, with all different split structures.
This isn't a video topic to cover splits as that really isn't any issue for the client and not something they need to worry about.
As a client, buying or selling, you need to look at your agents brokerage to see what tools and systems are in place to help you.
All brokers have different technology and backend tools to help the agent better serve their clients, some just have more than others.
While you do choose your agent, you are always represented by the brokerage itself, then if a deal does go through the broker is agreeing to pay their agent based on their prior agreed rate.
I have worked at a small brokerage to on a team but what lead me to C21 Beggins was #1 the training. I haven't encountered such training from in person to online. They have been around for so long so their knowledge about different things about the business that I haven't encountered yet is a powerful thing to have for support.
If you are looking for a real estate company here in the Tampa, FL area to help you they have offices on the beached of Pinellas, South Tampa, Sarasota and into Brandon and Apollo Beach so you are covered!
The tools in place when helping someone sell their property is unlike any other place. They teach us to help clients with value and not so much about what is in it for you. When selling your home you have to remember two very important things that you don't choose an agent based on commission or price alone.
Commission can always be negotiated but if that is your main reason for hiring someone is that they are offering a 1% listing fee I really hope you look into the tools they have in place to help you sell your home.
Price is NEVER determined by the listing agent, unless they are going to end up buying the home directly. The price can be suggested by an agent but should be done so by showing the home owners the comps in the area and helping them come to a decision based on condition and time frame. The BUYER determines the price, as it is the price they are willing to pay for your home. If that price doesn't work for your needs and you don't have to sell, then keep it as a rental.
If you are thinking about selling let me show you how we can help, selling 10-30 homes a day the systems are in place to get the job done.
