Answer:

Percentage of the sales price

Step-by-step explanation:

Real estate brokers are usually paid through:

  1. commission depending on the sales price: for example a real estate agent can charge a 3% commission on the final closing price of the property. The commission is paid on the selling price, not the listing price.
  2. flat sales commissions: not that common but a broker can accept it. Generally flat fee realtors do not offer a complete service, although it depends on the broker and the property, there is no one rule fits all.
