A brand that lists fewer of its agents publicly counts lower here. How the counting works.

5.3% of the 45,523 checked RE/MAX agents have a website of their own; 6.9% of the 33,258 checked Real Brokerage agents have a website of their own (national figure 7.2%). An agent's own site is one sign of how much of their business they carry with them.

What each publishes about commission

RE/MAX publishes no single compensation model: Set by each franchisee; plans vary from high-split with desk fees to traditional splits. The split, cap and fees are agreed with the office you join, so use the calculator with the numbers that office gives you.

Real Brokerage publishes no single compensation model: Its public pages did not expose a plan to an automated read; treated as set by each office until read by hand. The split, cap and fees are agreed with the office you join, so use the calculator with the numbers that office gives you.

Where the data comes from

Counted from RE/MAX's and Real Brokerage's own public agent directories on September 5, 2026; an agent is included once, with a published email, under the brand whose directory lists them.
