Advice on choosing the right brokerage and area

[Stephanie Choi]

I just sent in my courses and will get an exam date in about 6-8 weeks. While everything is processing, I want to use this time to look for the right brokerage to work for.

Does that area where the brokerage is at matter? I currently live in LA and will be moving to Westminister and I am trying to decide if I should choose a brokerage in LA or the OC. Does area really matter?

What are average commission splits?

Any other advice on choosing the right brokerage to work for?

Would love to hear what you have to say!
