Great for experience and potential

Disposition agent

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- If you are part of an established office, the opportunities are great. The lead generation by the acquisition agents will keep you fed - Comp plan isn't terrible, ranging from 10-20% of the sales volume per transaction dependent on your bonus for that month - Mostly younger agents, but if you fit in, you'll love it. (very "bro" culture)

Cons

- If you're not in an established office and you're helping it get started, there will be LOTS of down time, and being 100% commission is tough in circumstances like that - Comp plan isn't a standout - Lots of driving to the office and houses

We love hearing that you found strong opportunity and deal flow at New Western and appreciated the team dynamic. For the right fit, the real estate environment can be energizing and rewarding. We certainly understand the experience can be more challenging in developing offices, especially with the commission-based model real estate agents work with. We recognize that downtime, travel, and compensation structure can feel tougher in those situations. It's why we have the incentive model for our agents to help them ramp up. We appreciate the time you took to share your perspective and wish you continued success moving forward.
