Commissions

In addition, most agents remain in the commission ballpark of up to 3% of the traditional traditional.
Big picture

In the next 12 months, agents expect to grow the most customer segment from the decline and moving buyers.

Since 2024, the settlement, the feeling against Pomegranate is mainly unfavorable, and commissions remain quite stable.
