Thinking About Switching Brokerages? Here Is What 100% Commission Actually Looks Like.
If you are an experienced Florida agent producing at a 70/30, 80/20, or even a capped split, the math at Agent Plus Realty is simple: 100% on residential sales, 80% on commercial and leases. The standard residential transaction fee is $595 per side and is typically charged to the client on the closing statement where permitted and applicable.

100% commission applies to eligible residential sales. Commercial transactions and leases are paid at an 80/20 split. The standard residential transaction fee is $595 per side and is typically charged to the client on the closing statement where permitted, agreed, and applicable. Compensation, fees, eligibility, and payment responsibility are governed by the Independent Contractor Agreement and applicable transaction documents.
Newer agents may be subject to mentorship requirements. When mentorship applies, the mentorship fee is 20% of the commission.
Brokerage MLS participation is available through the MLS systems listed. Individual MLS, board, association, eKey/lockbox, data-access, and related third-party fees may be separate unless otherwise stated in writing.
Switching brokerages feels like a big decision. But when you run the numbers, it is often the simplest one you will make all year.
If you are currently at a franchise brokerage paying 70/30, 80/20, or even a capped split plus monthly fees, desk fees, technology fees, and franchise royalties — you are paying thousands of dollars per year for a brand name that your clients did not hire. They hired you.

The Real Cost of Staying at a Split Brokerage
Consider an agent closing 12 transactions per year at an average gross commission of $10,000:
- 70/30 split + $500/month fees: You keep $78,000. Brokerage takes $42,000 in splits + $6,000 in fees = $48,000 gone.
- Agent Plus Realty: You keep $120,000 on residential sales. The $595 fee is charged to the client. no required monthly fees.
The difference is $42,000+ per year. Over 5 years, that is more than $200,000 you keep instead of handing to a brokerage.
