Should Commission Splits Be a Thing of the Past?
Fathom Realty sheds light on the age-old commission question
The real estate brokerage of the late 20th century is vastly different than today’s brokerages. In the past, brokerages used commission splits and office fees to pay for brick-and-mortar locations, office equipment and other expenses that are often not necessary for a thriving business today. But if fewer agents utilize the “benefits” offered by a traditional split brokerage, why are they still paying a large portion of their hard-earned commissions for those “benefits?” In this month’s cover story, Fathom Realty’s leadership team strives to answer this question amidst the backdrop of an ever-evolving market, where what used to work no longer works as well—and what used to be necessary is no longer required.
