What split do you expect as a real estate agent?

What split are you currently on?

What do you feel your brokerage gives you for their split?

What split would you be willing to accept if you could double your business?

When I first got into real estate, I interviewed with two different real estate brokerage. One promised me floor time and internet leads, but at a 50% split, the other offered a 97% split, plus a $400 monthly payment and $240 per transaction fee.

My company, Cornerstone Real Estate Professionals,  is opening a new office in Ogden Utah. It is going to be different than what we have in Logan. Our focus is going to be on providing business for agents. We have several websites, OgdenUtahHomes.com, RealEstateinOgden.com, and RealEstateLaytonUtah.com, Homes4SaleinUtah.com, UtahRealEstate4Sale.com, RoyUTRealEstate.com and generate enough leads to give agents an average of atleast one new lead a day. If agents really work these leads, they should be able to close atleast 1 of 20 leads. That's an average of more than one closing each month.

Our goal is to get experienced agents making $40,000 - $60,000 a year, and with our tools and leads help them to become top producers.

As a business, we obviously want to be as profitible as possible, and we also want successful agents to be profitible. What split would you take if you were given enough business for an additional 12 closings a year?
