An example of Broker’s are these guys from the TV Show Million Dollar Listing.

Real estate agents and broker get paid through a commission. The property that they are selling is sold for a certain amount of money which is then taken and 7% is used for commission for the Real estate/broker’s pay. Broker’s can shuffle how much they want to have as far as commission goes. An example of this would be Homeowners ask agent Mary to sell their house for $200,000. Mary works at Superlist Brokerage. There is agreement on 7 percent commission. Frank, a selling agent at Bigbuy Brokerage, brings his clients to see the house and they purchase it for the asking price. The total commission will be $14,000, taken out of the sales price at the closing. In this case it is divided evenly between Superlist and Bigbuy. Mary, a highly successful agent for Superlist, receives 75 percent of the brokerage's $7,000 commission, or $5,250. Frank, a beginning agent, receives 30 percent of Bigbuy's $7,000 commission, or $2,100. HOW THEY GET PAID
