My wife and I are affiliated with the largest broker in Georgia, and the baseline commission structure is similar -- $68/month and $300/transaction.In Maryland, we're paying $99/month and about $200/transaction (I believe).So, that's pretty similar to both, which I consider to be good prices...

That was about 6 months ago when I dropped my management job and hit the ground running with the program.

The organization runs education and life skills programs for special needs children.

We have a new hospital outside the city that opened up about a year ago, prices are increasing along the county road running to it and it's an affiliate of one of the major hospitals here.

I went to the $50 show for Ron's new ACTS program, which is essentially just helping homeowners do a long term L/O their upside down homes (and keeping the option money) the way I understand it.
