Expert Insights on Residential Real Estate Brokerage
Residential Real Estate Brokerage is the act of representing a principal party in a residential real estate transaction in exchange for a commission. Real Estate brokers may represent either sellers or buyers in sale transactions and lessors or lessees in rental transactions. In most states, a state broker's license is required to receive a commission for services rendered as a real estate broker.
