Where the difference comes from
Additional income at Real your current brokerage doesn't offer
Up to $24,000/year in stock grants (REAX)
Real awards restricted stock units through two programs: the Elite Agent Production Award ($16,000) and the Culture Award ($8,000) for community contributions. There are two ways to qualify for the Production Award: (1) reach the $12K cap and pay $6,000 in post-cap fees (~21 transactions), or (2) achieve $500K+ GCI with 10+ transactions at $1M+ sale price. RSUs vest over 3 years. REAX trades on NASDAQ.
Revenue share — recurring income from your network
When agents you attract to Real close deals, you earn a percentage of the brokerage's portion — across 5 tiers, willable to your heirs. Many agents build $5K–$50K+/year in recurring revenue share income.
Compare your full picture
Your total annual benefit at Real isn't just fee savings — it includes stock grants and revenue share income that your current brokerage doesn't offer.
Stock grants require qualification and vest over 3 years. Revenue share varies by network size and activity. These are illustrative ranges, not guarantees. Award details · Revenue share model

Some agents at Real also build additional income over time — not by recruiting, but by being the kind of agent other agents want to work with. See how that side of the model works.

This calculator estimates the annual difference in what you keep based on your total sales volume, average commission rate, and the fee structure of your current brokerage compared to Real Brokerage. Results update live as you adjust any input.

Team plans and reduced-cap arrangements may differ. This estimate uses the standard individual agent plan.
Brokerage preset sources
Preset values are derived from publicly available information and the comparison pages on this site. Fee structures vary by market, office, and individual negotiation — particularly at franchise brokerages where splits and caps are set at the local level. The presets represent reasonable mid-range estimates for a self-generating agent. Edit any field to match your actual agreement.
What this calculator does not include
This estimate does not account for E&O insurance, MLS and board dues, technology platform fees, franchise royalties (unless included in the preset), or team/reduced-cap arrangements. Agents on team plans at Real may have different fee structures. A conversation with your sponsor will give you a complete picture of your specific situation.
There's a second number worth understanding.
The calculator shows what you keep from your own production. At Real, some agents build a second income stream over time through revenue share — not by managing agents, but by being helpful and well-connected. It's not for everyone, but it's worth knowing how it works.
