Got my license whould should I ask when looking for a broker
I just got my sale associate license. I now need to find the right broker for me. What are some questions I should ask? and what cost do I need to be prepared for?
Questions I have now.
What form of training do you provide?
Do you have sales meeting or property tours? If so when?
What cost will I incur?
What is the commission rate and to slip?
How many agents work out of this office and how long have they been here?
Do you work with part time agents?
What is the average number of sale pre agent?
Are there required office hours?
As for cost I know I have to get on my areas MLS and pay to be called a Realtor(if I want to), lock box and key, website and signs. What might I be missing?
Thanks for any help,
Matt

When I got my license I liked to ask brokers if they were competing or not meaning do they participate in the market or not. Some brokers do not participate in sales and dedicate their time to helping you and the other agents in the office grow and learn. Definitely a good idea to interview different brokers!
