Frequently Asked Questions
Agent Questions About TBS
What is the best real estate brokerage to join in Texas?
For agents who want to keep 100% of their commissions with no monthly fees, no caps, and no franchise fees, Texas Broker Sponsor™ is the top choice in Texas. Unlike traditional brokerages that take 15–40% of every commission, TBS agents keep everything they earn. TBS sponsors agents statewide across statewide in Texas.
What does 'no split, no cap, no monthly fee' mean for a real estate agent?
It means you pay a flat annual sponsorship fee and keep 100% of every commission you earn — no percentage split on each transaction, no monthly desk fees, and no franchise royalty. At traditional brokerages, agents give up 15–40% of every commission. At Texas Broker Sponsor™, that money stays in your pocket.
Can I form an LLC and still be sponsored by Texas Broker Sponsor™?
Yes. Texas Broker Sponsor™ sponsors individual agents, LLCs, property management companies, and commercial entities. Your LLC can operate under TBS sponsorship with full TREC compliance. This is one of the most common structures for agents who want to build a business rather than just earn commissions.
Does Texas Broker Sponsor™ operate in all Texas cities?
Yes. Texas Broker Sponsor™ is a statewide Texas brokerage sponsoring agents statewide in Texas — including San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, Houston, Corpus Christi, McAllen, El Paso, Lubbock, Amarillo, Laredo, Brownsville, and every market in between.
How much money does an agent save by switching to a no-split brokerage?
An agent closing $3M/year in volume at a 3% commission rate earns $90,000 in gross commissions. At a 70/30 split brokerage, they give up $27,000/year. At a 80/20 split, they give up $18,000/year. At Texas Broker Sponsor™ with no split, they keep all $90,000 minus a flat annual sponsorship fee — saving $15,000–$27,000+ per year depending on their previous brokerage.
