So I am leaning towards more boutique and investor friendly ones that charge low to no fees and allow me to keep most of my commission (such as this one https://www.reebroker.com/), but I understand that I won't get much support from them either.

If you walk into any of the boutique starchitects offices, they are often staffed with young designers that come from families that aren't "starving" by any means. 

We have four agents in total, and consider ourselves to be a boutique, family-oriented organization.I'm interested in contributing to the community by sharing my knowledge and experience in opening an independent brokerage in Florida.

In particular some small boutique motorcycle companies like Moto Guzzi and Ducati.

I think you ultimately have to figure out if your goals align... let me explainI operate a boutique style management company where we are very select with the owners that we choose.

We are a boutique property management company, specializing in condos, single family homes, and small multifamily properties on the westside regions of Los Angeles County.

Maybe that's boutique bee honey, maybe that's comic books, maybe that's gun brokering.

Are conventional lenders better or boutiques?
