Commercial Real Estate Agent Benefits:

Successful commercial real estate agents can earn 6 figures after about 12-18 months of sales activity. The sales process can be lengthy, but has an amazing payoff compared to traditional residential real estate agent roles. You're writing your own paychecks and your pay is tied directly to your time, effort, and skill. Be prepared to spend your early months earning very little while learning the role. However, if you put in the work, the reward is a lifetime career where you have the potential to earn 6 to 7 figures annually.

• Write your own paychecks in a 100% commission-based environment
• On average, brokers can make $175,000 and beyond. There are no caps!
• Enjoy a flexible work schedule where you can work from home and the office, and take time for yourself as needed.
• A career with incredible amounts of upward momentum including starting your own firm.
• A terrific team to back you up every day, helping you learn and succeed

• Grow your book of business through cold-calling
• Hone your sales skills to become a trusted advisor to your clients
• Spend time learning about the market in Akron
