Pricing · Predictable brokerage economics

Keep 90%. Hand off the back office.

Three plans, by how you operate. Solo starts at $99/month. Team and Business / DBA add a one-time setup at activation. Your split tracks the deal: 90/10 on residential sales & leases; 80/20 on commercial; Active Broker Role at 60/40 when the broker takes an active role in the transaction. A flat per-file fee applies on closed deals only — no closing, no fee.

Starting an LLC Brokerage?

If you're forming your own brokerage entity and need a Designated Broker, we offer broker-of-record service as a separate engagement — not a self-serve plan.

Need property management?

Most brokers will not let sponsored agents handle property management because of the ongoing liability. THRED Realty can structure it separately — co-brokered, broker-attached, and scoped to the property. Property management is separate from your sponsorship plan and split — reviewed and scoped per property.

What each fee covers.

Fixed vs. variable. Per-agent vs. per-deal. The two columns add up to your full virtual back office — nothing extra is bolted on.

Fixed · per agent

Each plan’s monthly covers

  • License sponsorship
  • Broker supervision
  • Baseline E&O participation
  • Virtual Office access
  • Vendor wholesale accounts
  • Marketing & AI tools
  • Lead support
Variable · per closed deal

The team covers

  • Transaction coordination
  • Accounting, invoicing, collections, 1099s
  • Transaction-specific compliance + risk review
  • Commercial deal support (commercial files only)

Closed deals only: a flat per-file fee covers the per-deal back-office work at cost — see the table below. No closing, no fee.
Your split tracks the deal — 90/10 on residential, 80/20 on commercial, Active Broker Role at 60/40 when the broker takes an active role in the transaction — and covers brokerage margin and shared overhead.

Why commercial costs more.

Higher liability exposure (E&O) and additional broker review time on every commercial transaction. Not premium pricing — actual cost of doing the deal right.

  • Commercial file review
  • Deal structure review
  • Broker-level transaction oversight
  • Lease & document review
  • Complex transaction supervision

Per-file fees. Closed deals only.

Cost-only flat fees on closed deals — no closing, no fee. They cover the per-deal back-office work (TC, accounting, compliance). You only pay the file fee when you get paid.

Deal type Fee per file (closed deals only)
Residential sale $195
Residential lease $125
Commercial sale $395
Commercial lease $245
Referral out $125

These flat fees apply on closed deals only — no closing, no fee. You only pay the file fee when you get paid. They cover per-deal back-office work (TC, accounting, transaction-specific compliance) at cost. Commercial sale is higher because of higher liability exposure and additional broker review time — see What’s included.

What this actually looks like. One deal.

Honest math. A $500,000 home sale, 3% agent-side commission, on the residential 90/10 split. Commercial and Active Broker Role deals follow different splits — see how it works.

Sale price $500,000
Commission (3% agent-side) $15,000 GCI
Brokerage 10% split − $1,500
Per-file fee (residential sale) (closed deal) − $195
You net (before personal taxes / expenses) $13,305

$13,305 on a $500k deal — after both the 10% split and the flat $195 file fee. At a typical 70/30 shop you’d net about $10,500 on the same deal. That’s $2,805 more per closing, even after the $99/mo. By deal #2 of the year, you’re ahead.

The 10% split and the flat file fee apply on every closed deal — and if a deal dies, there’s no file fee at all. You only pay the file fee when you get paid.

Deal die at the table?

No file fee.

We’re not a third-party TC with cancellation or dead-file charges. The deal dies, you move on. You only pay the file fee when you get paid.

When does the per-file fee apply?

Closed deals only.

The flat per-file fee covers each deal’s back-office work at cost — billed only when the deal closes. No closing, no fee.

What about the setup fee?

Charged once at activation.

Team and Business include a one-time setup fee — see the card prices above. Solo has no setup fee.
