How Real Estate Commissions Work
In the US, real estate commissions are typically 5–6% of the sale price, split between the listing agent and buyer's agent. Each agent then splits their portion with their brokerage.
The 2024 NAR Settlement Impact
Following the NAR settlement, buyer's agent commissions are now negotiated separately and must be agreed upon in writing before touring homes. This has led to more varied commission structures.
Typical Commission Splits
- New agents: 50/50 with broker
- Experienced agents: 70/30 to 80/20
- Top producers: 90/10 or 100% (desk fee model)
