Right, sdr. Let’s not forget that the realtors working along the coast are likely to have higher incomes because the local properties cost more. Do you have any evidence that the brokers require a higher percentage from agents who work in ocean-view offices vs. offices that overlook something more mundane (keeping all other variables the same, of course)? Seems to me that the opposite might be the case, since the agents who work in the higher-end area are often long-time agents who tend to keep a higher percentage of their commissions.
As far as “cut and paste” points…it’s better to actually back one’s arguments up with facts (and cite them) than to pull total nonsnese out of one’s ass and claim it as “fact.”
