Pros

Great training program, particularly for new agents. Nice offices. Basic administrative support at each office. Good team support. The offices are run by managers who typically don't do real estate, but have in the past. They are not only very experienced but are able to dedicate more time to you because they aren't busy with their own real estate transactions.

Cons

Low commission split plus Admin Fee for each transaction, plus an additional Service Fee added to client representation contracts (NRT only) for both buyers and sellers. I usually waive this fee for my clients as I don't agree with charging them any additional fee's outside the usual commission. All this combined can put quite a dent in your commission.
