How the calculation works

Gross commission is the sale price times your side’s commission rate. A referral fee, if you owe one, comes off the gross first. Your brokerage then keeps its share, you keep the rest, and any fixed fees (transaction, E&O, desk) come off last. Different brokerages order these steps differently, so confirm with yours.

Typical numbers

Commission rates, splits and caps are negotiated and vary by market and brokerage. Treat the defaults as an example, not a benchmark.

Questions

Is this the commission a buyer or seller pays?

The calculator works on your side of the deal: the commission your brokerage receives for your client, before and after your split. Enter the percentage that applies to your side.

Does it include taxes?

No. Agents are generally independent contractors who pay self-employment and income tax on net income. Talk to a tax professional.
