Our brokerage modeling tool was primarily designed for those who wanted to evaluate launching out on their own. But the model also works for teams to help them see how scaling growth can effect the bottom line.
The numbers in grey under assumptions are designed to be changed. The rest of the numbers will auto-calculate so you can get a picture of potential company dollar.
Let’s start with the assumptions.
Average volume per agent – This is going to be an average and guesstimate. If you don’t know, use $3 million.
Average commission rate – This varies across the country, use what is the average in your market. If you don’t know, use 2.5% to be safe with assumptions.
GCI – The Gross Commission Income auto calculates.
Off the Top Rake – This will auto calculate as a total. Many brands have a % they charge. Some brokers or teams will also charge and advertising fee off the top.
Company Split – This will auto calculate as a total. The Brand may have a percentage. The office or team may have a percentage. There might a percentage you charge for local marketing.
