Second day, and thus far things are going amazingly well.I just closed a $327,000 house representing a buyer for 1.5% commission. I've had it in the pipeline for a while but I didn't think it was going to close. I've never worked with a more stringent and ridiculous underwriter.That's roughly a check for 2 months of work at my old 9-5, in one day. 4951

Once they split it with the other realtor it is 3percent each usually but realtors can opt to take a lower percentage.  4951

@kingwooddiscgolf: I'm sure he will close shop on the days he is needed for Occupy Kingwood once again.

Self employed, working on commission no less. That's hard core capitalism, with a capital C. What will you do if one day you make it to the 1%, Evan? ; )Glad things are going well for you...Striking out on your own is no easy task. 4951

@KingwoodDotCom: That's not capitalism, get a book. Capitalists do nothing except invest money and in doing so they expect to extract production from other useful members of society. I worked for my pay, and the only thing I've got to sell is my own production.

@EvanCarroll:   Capitalists invest money in what?  You sell property.  Did you use the word investment in the close or just express how indebted the poor folks were going to be so just sign here and I feel for ya.
 
Come on Evan 4951
