Realtors make money on commission: They only get paid when they sell a house or help someone buy a house. The standard Realtor commission in the United States is between 5 and 6 percent, which is evenly split between the seller's agent and the buyer's agent [source: Linden].
When starting out as a real estate agent, you must work under a broker for a certain amount of time. The time you have to work under a broker varies depending on what state you do business in. While working under a broker, you also have to pay that broker. Working as a real estate agent is not a job where you get paid hourly for the work you do. You are self-employed and must sell houses to make money. The broker of the office does not make any money unless you sell houses as well. How the broker makes money is by taking a percentage of the commissions you make or a flat fee for houses you sell. The amount you pay to the broker varies widely based on the training, the office, the broker, and the work you do.
