Realtor Commission Calculator & Split Worksheet
Estimate a real estate agent's commission waterfall through side, referral, brokerage, franchise, team and expense deductions.
What Is the Realtor Commission Calculator & Split Worksheet?
A transparent deal-level commission worksheet for agents and brokers. It starts with sale price and the total property commission, isolates the represented side, then applies referral, franchise, brokerage, team and operating-cost assumptions before showing a planning tax reserve and estimated take-home.
How It Works
Enter the sale price and negotiated commission rate. Set the share allocated to your represented side, then enter each agreement-specific deduction. Use Brokerage Cap Remaining only when a cap limits the company-dollar portion of this transaction. Export the waterfall as CSV, Excel or PDF for review.
When to Use It
Use it to compare prospective deals, understand a closing statement, plan a tax reserve or explain how a gross commission becomes estimated agent income. It complements the mortgage, closing-cost, affordability and rental-return tools without replacing a brokerage statement.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Does this assume a standard commission?
- No. Every rate and split is editable. Real estate compensation is negotiable and varies by agreement, brokerage, market and law.
- How does the brokerage cap work?
- A value above zero limits company dollar on this transaction to the entered remaining cap. Enter zero when no cap applies, which uses the full scheduled brokerage split.
- Is the take-home amount taxable income?
- It is a planning estimate before personal taxes and may not match taxable income. Confirm deductible expenses and tax treatment with a qualified adviser.
