Internal Reference

This calculator is an internal planning tool based on the commission structure shown above. Brokerage and royalty caps are tracked independently. If a transaction crosses a cap, the calculator deducts only the amount still required to reach that cap. Monthly fees, MLS dues, board dues, licensing costs, taxes and other business expenses are not deducted from the estimated agent commission. Current team agreements and brokerage documentation govern if a split, fee, cap or policy differs from this reference.
