Ben Tapper is quoted in The U.S. News & World Report on real estate commissions for agents:
Tapper explains that in commercial real estate a team structure has become popular, meaning more agents may play a role in helping a deal close. This is also common in some residential brokerage firms. As the leader of a team, “I try to compensate all the brokers and salespeople on my team for every deal that they’re a part of the origination of,” Tapper says.
