If you are a Realtor, check with your broker. If not, it depends on what kind of regulations your state and local governments have regarding your question.

The typical starting compensation for a new copier salesperson is usually $18,000 a year and 30-40% commission.  The 30-40% typically represents the amount you are able to include as profit in the deal.  An example would be that you sell a machine for $5000 and the cost of goods is $4000, leaving $1000 in profit which you may receive between $300 to $400 of.

I was an agent with ReMax for a while and it's a very high turnover company because of the high expense to its agents.  I personally know two brokers in my city who closed their ReMax offices and joined another ReMax office because they both said they made more money as a ReMax Realtor.  Apparently ReMax has very high fees for their brokers too.  I'm just finishing up the broker course and I'm planning on starting my own company.  If you are going to do a franchise though, I would recommend you go with another company, not ReMax.\n\nI hope that helps.  Good luck!!!

I've been a health insurance broker for about 20 years.  Brokers in almost all US states get paid commissions that do not affect the cost of their clients' policies.  This is due to state regulations.\n\nIn another words, the policy costs the same whether the client buys from the broker or from the company.\n\nCommissions are usually a percentage of the monthly premium the client pays.  I work with all the Connecticut non-group health insurance companies and the percentage ranges from 7% to 25%.  One company pays a flat fee of $17 per month per contract.  \n\nThe companies that pay higher first year commissions ususally pay less in the second and subsequent years than they do in the first year.\n\nIt is a good business, but it is a lot of work.  You get a lot of technical questions so you have to know your stuff.  Also there are no big commission cases at least not if you focus on individual sales like I do.  However, every month or every quarter, you will cash slightly bigger checks.  Eventually you wil have a good income if you work at it.\n\nIf you are planning to come into the business, good luck (unless you are planning to compete with me in Connecticut - just kidding there are plenty of clients to go around).  Study hard; work hard; work with integrity and you will gain many new clients and friends.\n\nIf you want to find out more about me visit my website.  See below:

If you want to build a custom home, expect to pay a minimum of $100 per sf.; more like $125/sf if you want something nice.   If you are talking about a new cookie-cutter spec. home, they tend to start out at around $75/sf, and go up from there, depending on the neighborhood and builder.

If you are doing this out of the kindness of your heart, you're probably okay. But you need to be licensed before you accept _money_ for trading their account (especially if you lose the client's money and they run screaming to the authorities) For example, see the Illinois Securities Department's Admonistrative Rules (link 1). \n\nIn Illinois, I am fairly certain you would need to register as an Investment Adviser (after passing the Investment Adviser Examination).\n\nBut if you can bring accounts into a brokerage, and you are as good as you say, than why not work for one? Perhaps you can work your way up the business (or eventually start your own). The additional required licensure exams are not rocket science:\nthe basic one is the Series 7 (General Securities Representative) exam (link 2).\n\nGood luck!\n\n----- excerpt from link 1 ----\nSection 130.221 Exclusion of Certain Persons from the Definition of Investment Adviser in Section 2.11 of the Act\n\nAny person whose investment advice is limited to providing such advice to his or her employer as part of the employee's regular assigned duties, who receives no special compensation on account of such advice (other than salary and other compensation alternatives generally available to persons at a similar level of responsibility within the employer) and who is not held out to the public as an investment adviser by the employer is hereby designated as a person not within the intent of Section 2.11 of the Act pursuant to Section 2.11(6) thereof.

There is no standard "set" rate of commissions, they are set buy the broker based upon their cost to do business and receive a reasonable profit, failing which will cause any broker- or business to cease operations. \n\nFor outside brokers to discuss commissions is not smart, such can be, and has been construed as colusion on setting commissions which clearly violates the Sherman anti-trust act.\n\nTo get your specific  desired reply, contact an Assit to Sell brokerage firm direct. \n\nRegarding any real estate firm that promises to save money with discount services, a word of caution: be careful that you read all their contract, know what services you are paying for and expect to receive. Many people are rudely awakend to less than they thought they had contracted for and end up paying full commissions and being unhappy with what they bought. As with any cut rate firm, be ready to work yourself.\n\nIn the real world and the business world there are no free lunches, somebody always pays. If you set aside money  to cover the cost when the cheaper item fails- and it is likely to fail, then you could have paid for the higher quality item or service up front and been done with it, saving time and money.\n\nIn a slowing real estate market, if you intend to sell, you will need all the edge you can get to stay on top of the market and have a successful sale.\n\nPlease consider the potential for failure, prepare well for it and act accordingly. Good luck.

I have been in real estate for 10 years.  It takes the average agent about 4 months before they see their first deal.  I takes about a year to really see some measure of success.  I have seen agents have up and down careers, meaning a good year then a not so good year.  True financial gain exists in this business.  I have seen more success on the investment side than the sales/listings side of the business.  It takes anywhere from 2 to 5 weeks to complete the pre-licensing classes and they cost about $325.  Once you complete the required course, you have to take the state and national exams.  When you pass those, you can place your license with a real estate broker and get started.  It is a very exiting business.  It takes a lot of time and it cost money to get your name out there, via advertising, etc...\n\nGood luck in your career.  BTW...the competition isn't that fierce.  Any broker will tell you that there are probably 100,000 licensed agents and only about 5% that really do the business.

Your commission as an agent usually only ranges between 2.5% and 4% of each house, since the total commission (typically between 5-8%) has to be split between the selling/listing agent.  Then, this has to be split with your broker.  So, let's say you sell one $200,000 house with a 5% commission, total commission is $10,000.  Your SIDE will be $5000, and the amount that goes in your pocket will be about $2500, assuming as a new agent you will have a 50/50 split with your broker.  \n\nThis might sound great, to make $2500 off of just one house, but you have to carefully consider:  where are you going to get these people who need to buy and sell houses?  Trust me, no one just walks up to you (especially as a new agent) and says, hey, can you sell my house?  You have to spend money and time prospecting and marketing. There is a LOT of competition between agents, and don't be surprised when at least one of your clients gets "stolen" by another agent.  You also have to remember that typically a closing can last 30-60 days, meaning when you sell the house, you don't get paid for it for months, and you still have to carefully hold the contract together to make sure the closing still happens. Not to mention, you will find yourself working with a lot of "tire kickers" who will drag you all over the place to look at houses to never actually buy anything.\n\nFactor in gas mileage prices, office equipment, advertising, marketing expenses, mls fees, E & O insurance, and licensing requirements for your state, you very well may actually LOSE money your first year or so.\n\nI'm not saying its impossible to come out ahead, but in order to do well for your first year you need to already be established with people who are able to buy/sell, have at least 6 months of savings, be agressive, and not afraid of rejection.  I don't mean to be depressing here, but I think a realistic viewpoint is important, also.  In my office alone I have seen several people come in thinking they'll be million dollar producers, only to drop out in 3-4 months, wasting a lot of time, energy, and money in the process.\n\nYou might also want to check out this site:\n\nwww.agentsonline.net

If you are actually expecting to make money you'll need AutoCAD - otherwise you're just a doodler - - a commercial license is about $2000.00  Not to mention a good computer to run it and a plotter - a total of probably 5-10 grand\n\nplus I'm sure you need VERY specific degrees and licenses to sell your plans to a contractor

well i am a broker and for linda it is very unfair that real estate agents try to blame us for making our money. if you sell a $300,000 house you get 3.5% = $10500 automatically but if we charge 2 points = $6,000\nall agents do is show a house people buy on there own off of emotions, brokers have to deal with the people make them chase documents, fight with underwriters and do all the hard work but when it comes time to pay us people act like we're crazy. Ive been on both sides. So to answer the the main question if you can provide quick quality service and be honest to a realtor by telling them weather or not the deal has a chance that is all anything else comes with the territory and real estate agents dont understand because there is much they have to do
