This tool shows what a deal pays. What decides whether you get it is the listing presentation, the buyer consult, the price-reduction talk. James is an AI sales coach: record those calls, and it tells you what to fix the moment they end.

The seller pays one total commission, a percentage of the sale price:
total commission = sale price × rateThat total is usually shared between the two sides of the deal, the listing side and the buyer's side, often around 50/50. Your gross commission (GCI) is your side's share. Then your brokerage takes its cut per your split, and any flat fees come off the top to leave your net:
GCI = total × your side's shareCommissions are negotiable. There is no legal standard rate, and recent rule changes make that clearer than ever. Set the rate and your side's share to match the actual deal.
You represent one side of a $500,000 sale at a 5% total rate. You keep a 70% split with your brokerage and pay a $500 transaction fee.
| Step | Math | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Total commission | $500,000 × 5% | $25,000 |
| Your GCI (one side) | $25,000 × 50% | $12,500 |
| After your 70% split | $12,500 × 70% | $8,750 |
| Your net (minus $500 fee) | $8,250 |
So a $25,000 headline commission becomes $8,250 in your pocket. The split and fees are where the GCI number and the take-home number part ways.
Your side's share of the total commission, before your brokerage split. It's the top-line number agents track.
The share you keep after your brokerage's cut. A 70/30 split means you keep 70%. Set it to 100% if you're on a flat-fee or 100% plan.
Some brokerages cap the total they take per year. After you hit the cap, your split effectively becomes 100%. Model that by raising your split.
The commission comes out of the sale proceeds, so the seller funds it. How the two sides are paid can be negotiated on each deal.
Commissions are negotiable and vary by market, but a total in the range of 5–6% of the sale price has been common. There is no legally fixed rate, so always use the number in your actual agreement.
Gross commission income: your side's share of the total commission, before your brokerage takes its split. If the total on a deal is $25,000 and you represent one side at 50%, your GCI is $12,500.
A split is how you and your brokerage divide your GCI, such as 70/30 in your favor. A cap is a yearly ceiling on what the brokerage collects; once you hit it, you effectively keep 100% for the rest of the year. Model a cap by raising your split.
It's paid from the proceeds of the sale, so the seller funds it at closing. How each side of the deal is compensated can be negotiated per transaction.
