Suggestions on finding a broker

Hello everyone, 

I have recently passed the real estate exam and I'm in the process of interviewing brokers.  Do you all have any recommendations on what to ask and what to look for?  Is it better to start with a larger brokerage or a small brokerage?

    Congrats on passing your licensing exam Toni,

    100% of you income will come from your work not from your broker.  It does not matter if it is a National Franchise or Mom and Pop broker.

    You need the following.

    1. No commissions paid to the broker on your personal or investment property buy or sell.

    2. As low a commission split as possible with the broker or better yet just a desk fee.

    Make sure you and the broker place in writing your commitments to each other.

    It is time to go make some income from the fabulous business.

    I'm Glad You Asked!
