Which is more important, especially to a new or newer agent, a brokerage that offers the best split or one that offers the most training?
This is the question of the ages in Real Estate. We work for a broker that offers fair splits but has great training. What say ye? I would also ask the same question to experienced agents, what is more important, continuing training or high splits?
I ask not just to generate buzz, but also to gather information for myself, like I said my broker offers fair splits, but there are a couple of other brokerages in town that offer a lot higher splits. We also have Exit and Allpro offices that basically is a flat fee per transaction plus desk fees. So I wanted to gather as much information as I can, from you, my peers.
I don't pretend to think that I don't need to have continuing training, I know that there are a lot of ways to obtain training. Some that aren't expensive, some that are. Once again, I thank you in advance for your thoughts and ideas.

When I received my license I really didn't know much about the firm I was to work for. It was a pretty large firm in my market area that had a national name behind it. It was a 50/50 up to I can't remember. They had some educational opportunities and a couple of heavy hitting agents. I just didn't feel like I was getting what I needed so I moved to a desk fee office of a brokerage that was the leader in my market area - I was still a new agent and knew I would have to really push myself. Even though it was a desk fee office the broker was amazing when it came to eduction and mentoring. I think the broker is the one that makes or breaks an office. I spent 10 years there and after returning to the area I have decided to work at a desk fee office again.
