If I'm purchasing a house for 25000 how much do i pay my realtor?

Typically the commission is paid by the seller, which the buyer's agent & seller's agent split in half. If you are paying the agent a commission, he or she is getting paid twice. If I were you, I would look for another agent that will accept the commission that is being paid by the seller.

How much does a title insurance agent make?

The usually make between 100,000 and 150,000 per year depending on the state. TITLE GURU SAYS: It depends, do you mean how much does an agency make or an individual title agent? Most title agents work on 100% to partial commission. So the answer to that one is subjective - it's based on the individual's production and annual sales. If you are a title examiner, you would be making at least $12 per hour up to $35 per hour or salaries from $35K -- up. It also depends on the size of the company you work for and the scope of your skills set. Agencies are also volume based and owe a percentage of the premium collected to their Underwriter. So, if you are a low volume agency doing only 10 deals per month, you'd be making a couple $1000 per month (net profit) If you are a large agency cranking out 300 commercial deals per month, you are well over 6-figures annually. So the real answer is, it depends. On many factors including the state or city you do business in, the size of the company, the % split with the Underwriter and sales agents, etc etc etc.

How is the commission split between the listing real estate agent and purchasers real estate agent?

There is a huge variation in this. In some areas the listing commission and the sales commission are split 50-50. In other areas the listing company gets 60% of the commission due to higher expenses. After the real estate companies take their shares then they pay their agents a percentage of this. Some companies start new agents at a 50-50 split and they gradually work up to 60,70, 80, or 90 %. Other companies charge their agents a monthly desk fee and pay out 95% of the commission, keeping 5% for the franchise fee. (Like Remax). There are other business models out there as well.

Is working under a state farm agent a good stepping stone to becoming an agent?

Any insurance related job is a good stepping stone. Keep in mind that State Farm agents are captive, and therefore you will only learn about the products that that company offers. Independent agents have access to a variety of different insurance companies and products, both preferred standard and non standard markets as well as Surplus Lines and International markets. Farmers Insurance agents have a preferred market, as well as some limited ability to broker business to the surplus lines market. Whatever route you take, be sure to get your insurance license and negotiate a commission split with the agent in addition to your hourly wage.


Who determine real estate sales commissions?

It's a decision taking when a property is listed. There's no set amount, although most residential sales involve a payment to the listing brokerage of five or six percent. This is the total commission deducted from the sale proceeds and paid directly to the listing brokerage. In turn, this is customarily shared on a 50-50 basis with the sellling brokerage. The two brokerages then split their half share with the agents involved. This split varies in accordance with whatever the terms of the brokerage happen to have agreed upon with its agents. Often enough, though, it comes down to a further 50-50 split. Thus, a sale for $100,000 at a 5% commissioin will end up in four payments of $1250.

What percentage does a real estate sales person receive from their broker?

In the US it varies by state and individual brokerages. The conventional compensation model was the brokerage and the salesperson split 50/50 until a certain threshold is reached, then the split increases in 5% increments. Some companies pay 100% to their agents and the agent pays a desk fee to the broker which is a fixed monthly amount. There are as many models for compensation as there are companies and all are negotiable between the agent and his/her broker. Also, the agents usually pay a franchise fee of 5% to 7% of their commission to companies such as Coldwell Banker, Prudential, ReMax, etc.


Does a real estate agent get the full commission that is itemized on the HUD settlement statement?

No. The HUD lists the total amount of commission paid to the listing broker and selling broker if they are different companies. The agent then has to split his commission with his office, sometimes the split is as high as 50/50.
