Just Passed Exam! How to choose a broker. Please Help!
Just passed my salesperson exam and i am now licensed in the state of massachusetts! Whoop Whoop! I am trying to decide which broker to sign with. I have been in contact with KW and i feel the most comfortable there, however i have also considered Exit. I also just lost my job, and i'm looking for a full or part-time job, preferably evenings, nights or weekends(anybody got something for me to do? lol) Anyway, that is a factor in my decision, and KW fees do add up and is hard for me to do when i'm just starting, while it seems like all the fees that are there are free at Exit. Any information, advice, offers, would be greatly appreciated. Also, please no sell jobs or sales pitches for your company, just looking for advice, Thanks all!

Is your goal to use a licence to facilitate investing or do you want to make income as a real estate agent? If you just want to have a licence and do your own thing go for the least expensive option and doesn't have high productivity requirements and mandatory desk time and that kind of stuff.
If you want to make money as an agent then pick the one that you feel has the best training and ongoing support as well as the office that will get more foot traffic. Starting out you are more likely to get buyer clients than listings so getting people in the door will be useful.
