As a charitable benefactor of The Sunshine Kids Foundation, Berkshire Hathaway agents and staff focus their fundraising activities to support group activities for children with cancer. This brokerage is a great choice for agents who prefer to take home a smaller amount in their split in exchange for an inclusive fee structure, meaning you\u2019ll generally see fewer charges for marketing materials. What you\u2019ll get: technology and a CRM, training, leads (depending on the individual office) and use of the company name.<\/p>\n<p>One thing that differentiates BHHS from other brokerages is its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhhs.com\/about\/rethink-council\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">REthink Council<\/a>. This is a group of industry leaders (all Berkshire Hathaway agents) who have been carefully selected to join a council dedicated to inspiring the next generation of top-producing leaders in the network. If community and charity sounds like you, and it\u2019s worth the 50\/50 split (although all things in real estate are negotiable), then your new home may be with BHHS.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading vetted-accordion-header\" id=\"h-features-per-realtrends-data-2024\">Features (per RealTrends data 2024)<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Transactions: 224,485<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sales volume: $136 billion<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Agent count: 37,745<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading vetted-accordion-header\" id=\"h-pros-amp-cons\">Pros &amp; Cons<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list plus-sign-list\">\n<li>Charitable giving focus<\/li>\n<li>Inclusive split and fewer marketing costs<\/li>\n<li>Opportunity to join their REthink council<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list minus-sign-list\">\n<li>Higher splits, starting at 50\/50<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Visit Berkshire Hathaway<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-b9a9fc4f qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-content--full-width product-box-white\">\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-310066f4 qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-content--boxed\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"century-21\">Century 21: Best for a well-known brand<\/h2>\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-023f0000 qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-gutter--no qodef-vertical-align--middle qodef-content--boxed\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\" id=\"placester\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"848\" height=\"100\" data-attachment-id=\"410806\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/articles\/best-real-estate-companies-to-work-for\/logo-century21\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png\" data-orig-size=\"848,100\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta='{\"aperture\":\"0\",\"credit\":\"\",\"camera\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"created_timestamp\":\"0\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"focal_length\":\"0\",\"iso\":\"0\",\"shutter_speed\":\"0\",\"title\":\"\",\"orientation\":\"0\"}' data-image-title=\"Logo-Century21\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png?w=300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png?w=848\" src=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png?w=848\" alt=\"Logo-Century21\" class=\"wp-image-410806\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.486666666666667;object-fit:contain;width:auto;height:80px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png 848w, https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png?resize=150,18 150w, https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png?resize=300,35 300w, https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Logo-Century21.png?resize=768,91 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 848px) 100vw, 848px\"><\/figure>\n<\/section>\n<p>Founded in 1971 and one of the most well-known brands in real estate, Century 21 (C21) has pivoted and adapted to stay relevant over the decades, not an easy task.

Compass has spent a lot of money on national ad campaigns, which helps their brand recognition.<\/p>\n<p>One important thing to note: as of September 2025, it was announced that Compass will be purchasing Anywhere Real Estate, Inc., the parent company of Coldwell Banker, C21, Sotheby\u2019s, and other large real estate brokerages.<\/p>\n<p>What you\u2019ll get: sleek, sexy branding, a national marketing campaign to increase brand recognition and an all-in-one client dashboard.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading vetted-accordion-header\" id=\"h-features-per-realtrends-data-2024-1\">Features (per RealTrends data 2024)<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Transactions: 228,785<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sales volume: $231 billion\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Agent count: <\/strong><strong>37,144<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading vetted-accordion-header\" id=\"h-pros-amp-cons-2\">Pros &amp; Cons<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list plus-sign-list\">\n<li>Cutting-edge technology and client-facing dashboard<\/li>\n<li>Elevated brand recognition<\/li>\n<li>\u201cPrivate Exclusives\u201d \u2013 a physical or digital book for pre-market and off-market listings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list minus-sign-list\">\n<li>Potentially, language in some of the contracts stating an agent will owe money if they leave the company (read your contracts carefully!)<\/li>\n<li>Prioritizes the company\u2019s brand over the agent\u2019s personal brand<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Visit Compass<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-17967b1b qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-content--full-width product-box-white\">\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-62fc0408 qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-content--boxed\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"exp-realty\">eXp Realty: Best for recruiting other agents<\/h2>\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-71a57333 qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-gutter--no qodef-vertical-align--middle qodef-content--boxed\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\" id=\"placester\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"170\" data-attachment-id=\"545061\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/?attachment_id=545061\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eXp-Realty-logo.png\" data-orig-size=\"300,170\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta='{\"aperture\":\"0\",\"credit\":\"\",\"camera\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"created_timestamp\":\"0\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"focal_length\":\"0\",\"iso\":\"0\",\"shutter_speed\":\"0\",\"title\":\"\",\"orientation\":\"0\"}' data-image-title=\"eXp Realty logo\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eXp-Realty-logo.png?w=300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eXp-Realty-logo.png?w=300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eXp-Realty-logo.png?w=300\" alt=\"eXp Realty logo\" class=\"wp-image-545061\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.486666666666667;object-fit:contain;width:auto;height:80px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eXp-Realty-logo.png 300w, https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/eXp-Realty-logo.png?resize=150,85 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"><\/figure>\n<\/section>\n<p>For agents who either double as influencers in the real estate industry or are simply looking to add another income stream via revenue share, eXp could be the right fit.<\/p>\n<p>For every new agent that joins under a sponsor, that sponsor receives 3.5% of the new agent\u2019s gross commission.

The brokers and lead agents do a great job mentoring new agents, helping them build a strong foundation and set them up for success. I\u2019d argue the high level of training and education makes KW an attractive choice for agents at any production level, though, not just newbies.<\/p>\n<p>Keller Williams has worked to step up their technology and tool game so that it can better compete with the more cutting-edge brokerages. Between the proprietary platform, KW Command, and the recent partnership with Canva, KW holds their own when it comes to technology. KW also offers profit-sharing, so agents who want to bring in others can benefit financially and build a secondary income stream.<\/p>\n<p>What you\u2019ll get: KW truly feels like a family; having been part of the brokerage myself for the past 12 years, I can personally speak to this. Everyone from local leadership to Gary Keller himself is extremely accessible, always putting the agents first and making us feel like part of a large yet caring community. KW Cares is the brokerage\u2019s in-house charity, supporting our agents in times of need (personal crisis, natural disasters, etc).<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re learning-based and like the idea of physical office locations, want to build a strong foundation in real estate, plus want to join a brokerage with a capping model to keep more of your income, check out your local KW office.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading vetted-accordion-header\" id=\"h-features-per-the-real-estate-almanac-data-2024\">Features (per the Real Estate Almanac data 2024)<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Transactions: 828,875<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sales volume: $370 billion<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Agent count: 145,000+<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading vetted-accordion-header\" id=\"h-pros-amp-cons-4\">Pros &amp; Cons<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list plus-sign-list\">\n<li>Best training and mentorship for new agents<\/li>\n<li>KW Cares, a charitable foundation for KW agents in need<\/li>\n<li>Powerful technology and marketing tools<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list minus-sign-list\">\n<li>Higher fees than some of the cloud-based brokerages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Visit Keller Williams<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-8174f2aa qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-content--full-width product-box-white\">\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-6b7601cd qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-content--boxed\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"remax\">RE\/MAX: Best for an independent brokerage model<\/h2>\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-76cb5a0e qodef-col-num--1 qodef-col-layout--100 qodef-gutter--no qodef-vertical-align--middle qodef-content--boxed\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\" id=\"placester\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"120\" data-attachment-id=\"545062\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/?attachment_id=545062\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/REMAX-Logo.png\" data-orig-size=\"440,120\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta='{\"aperture\":\"0\",\"credit\":\"\",\"camera\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"created_timestamp\":\"0\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"focal_length\":\"0\",\"iso\":\"0\",\"shutter_speed\":\"0\",\"title\":\"\",\"orientation\":\"0\"}' data-image-title=\"REMAX Logo\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/REMAX-Logo.png?w=300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/REMAX-Logo.png?w=440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/REMAX-Logo.png?w=440\" alt=\"REMAX Logo\" class=\"wp-image-545062\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2.486666666666667;object-fit:contain;width:auto;height:80px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/REMAX-Logo.png 440w, https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/REMAX-Logo.png?resize=150,41 150w, https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/REMAX-Logo.png?resize=300,82 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\"><\/figure>\n<\/section>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been in the business for a long time and don\u2019t need any extras \u2013 you just want to sell real estate, RE\/MAX may be a good choice.

Currently operating in all 50 states and Canada, REAL has quickly grown its footprint in markets traditionally dominated by the more established brokerages. But what is really setting them apart, particularly for newer and younger agents, is their technology.<\/p>\n<p>Their innovative technology tools include mobile platforms for working on the go. They also have leveraged automation and AI to streamline processes and remove administrative hassles that can be a major pain point for agents.<\/p>\n<p>REAL was founded in 2018 and went public in 2020. That is 1\/20th of the time Coldwell Banker has been in business. For some agents and clients, this doesn\u2019t matter. For them, it\u2019s the quality of the agent. However, there are some people who trust a brand, and name recognition and market share are deciding factors in who they choose. For agents looking for a new brokerage, you may feel the same way.<\/p>\n<p>What you\u2019ll get: REAL agents seem to excel in sharing knowledge, building community and having fun.

Here are the additional things you\u2019ll want to consider before you make your decision:<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor 1: Culture and size of the brokerage\/office<\/h3>\n<p>How important is a strong office culture to you? For some agents, it doesn\u2019t make any difference. For others, feeling a sense of community and teamwork within a brokerage is very important.<\/p>\n<p>Consider the size of the individual office, as well. Do you prefer a smaller office with just a few dozen agents or a larger one with hundreds? There are pros and cons to each. Smaller offices can feel more like a family, yet they can also be prone to drama. Larger offices tend to offer more opportunities for collaboration amongst agents, yet sometimes agents can feel lost in the shuffle.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor 2: Cloud-based versus physical offices<\/h3>\n<p>Do you like being in the office sometimes? If you\u2019re a newly licensed agent, going into a physical office can be helpful, as there are usually other agents around who you can ask questions of and learn from.<\/p>\n<p>For some, having a higher split and a lower cap is worth sacrificing a physical office, especially if you are someone who will never use the office. Instead, keep more of your money and create a killer home office.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor 3: Training, support and ongoing education<\/h3>\n<p>I know some experienced agents can occasionally discount the importance of a strong training curriculum, but it\u2019s especially important today to affiliate with a brokerage that stays up-to-date on the latest law and policy changes.<\/p>\n<p>Think of the past year: we\u2019ve seen changes to buyer agency, and some of our forms have even changed. I can\u2019t tell you how many agents I\u2019ve encountered who still don\u2019t have a concrete understanding of the changes. I don\u2019t blame them; I blame their brokerage. Choose a company with strong local leadership that will train its agents and help them stay informed as the industry continues to evolve.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor 4: Technology<\/h3>\n<p>While the core of a real estate transaction will always remain rooted in human-to-human relationships (hopefully, anyway), a strong technology platform can make your job as an agent much easier and more streamlined. When shopping for brokerages, ask about their technology offerings.<\/p>\n<p>If you can, speak to a few of their agents and ask if they use the tech provided by the brokerage and what they think of it. This will give you a more complete picture of what to expect should you choose that brokerage.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor 5: Ask about the offboarding process and read contracts carefully<\/h3>\n<p>It may sound strange, but one of the most important considerations when you are choosing a real estate brokerage is how they treat agents who leave the company. Will you owe the brokerage any money? What happens with your clients and your database? Is there a non-compete clause?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d go as far as to ask agents who have left the company you\u2019re considering about their offboarding process. How were they treated? Were there any surprises? Be sure to read any contract you sign very carefully, and maybe even have an attorney review it first.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-full-picture\">The full picture<\/h2>\n<p>Choosing the best real estate company isn\u2019t easy, but the more research you do upfront, the better decision you will make. Be careful not to fall into the common trap of choosing a company simply because you know one person there. Start with the data we provided, then go do your homework. Interview several companies, and always trust your gut instincts.<\/p>\n<section class=\"wp-block-qi-blocks-columns qodef-gutenberg-section qodef--template qodef-block-c0885cca qodef-col-num--2 qodef-col-layout--50 qodef-content--boxed row-newsletter-3\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-real-estate-advice-top-tech-lead-gen-amp-marketing-tools-delivered-to-your-inbox\">Real estate advice + top tech, lead gen &amp; marketing tools \u2014 delivered to your inbox.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Get expert advice, independent reviews and product recommendations from our editorial team of experienced real estate agents, brokers and coaches. <\/p>\n<p><script charset=\"utf-8\" type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/js.hsforms.net\/forms\/embed\/v2.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script>\n  hbspt.forms.create({\n    region: \"na1\",\n    portalId: \"4509319\",\n    formId: \"baa83a9a-0daa-452f-a7c6-38f4addffde5\"\n  });\n<\/script><\/p>\n<style>\n.row-newsletter-3 {\n    background-color: #313A3D !important;\n    padding: 35px 30px;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 h3.wp-block-heading,\n.row-newsletter-3 p {\n    color: #fff !important;\n    margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 p,\n.row-newsletter-3 span,\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-richtext {\n    font-family: 'Georgia' !important;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form {\n    background-color: #5db7de !important;\n    border-radius: 8px;\n    box-shadow: none;\n    width: 100%;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3  .hbspt-form .hs-input, .row-newsletter-3  .hbspt-form .hs-input:not([type=checkbox]).error {\n    background-color: #fff;\n    border: 1px solid #5db7de !important;\n    font-size: 14px !important;\n    line-height: 16px;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-submit .hs-button {\n    background-color: #022f40 !important;\n    color: #ffffff !important;\n    border: 1px solid #022f40 !important;\n    margin-top: 15px;\n    font-size: 1.125em;\n    font-weight: 600 !important;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-submit .hs-button:hover {\n    background-color: #000 !important;\n    color: #fff !important;\n    border: 1px solid #000 !important;\n    font-weight: 600 !important;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form label, .row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-form-field label:not(.hs-error-msg) {\n    color: #000000 !important;\n    font-size: 14px !important;\n    line-height: 16px !important;\n    margin-bottom: 2px !important;\n    margin-top: 0px !important;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-form-field .hs-error-msg{\n    color: #7D1725 !important;\n    font-size: 11px !important;\n    line-height: 14px !important;\n    margin-bottom: 2px !important;\n    font-weight: 600 !important;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-input.invalid.error {\n    border: 1px solid #BC2F30 !important;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-richtext p {\n    color: #000 !important;\n    margin-bottom: 0px !Important;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .submitted-message p {\n    font-size: 26px;\n    font-weight: 600;\n    width: 80%;\n    text-align: center;\n    margin: 0 auto;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .submitted-message p:after {\n    content: \"\";\n    width: 100%;\n    background-image: url(https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Icon-Newletter-2.png);\n    height: 80px;\n    max-width: 80px;\n    position: relative;\n    display: block;\n    background-size: contain;\n    margin: 10px auto;\n    background-repeat: no-repeat;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .hs-richtext h3 {\n    font-family: 'Poppins' !important;\n    font-size: 24px !important;\n    line-height: 28px;\n    margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n.row-newsletter-3 .hbspt-form .form-columns-0 .hs-richtext p span {\n    font-size: 11px !important;\n}\n<\/style>\n<\/section>\n<p><script>\njQuery(document).ready(function($) {\n  $('.vetted-accordion-header').click(function() {\n    var content = $(this).next('.vetted-accordion-content');<\/p>\n<p>    if (content.hasClass('active')) {\n      \/\/ Collapse the section if it's already active\n      content.removeClass('active').css('max-height', '0');\n      $(this).removeClass('open-toggle'); \/\/ Remove class from header\n    } else {\n      \/\/ Expand the clicked section\n      content.addClass('active').css('max-height', content.prop('scrollHeight') + 'px');\n      $(this).addClass('open-toggle'); \/\/ Add class to header\n    }\n  });\n});\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With so many real estate brokerages out there competing not only for listings but for you, the real estate agent, it can be tough to know which one is the right fit for you.
