Best Real Estate Brokerage for New Agents: Why Real Often Tops the List (2025)

In this episode we unpack the Speicher Group’s guide to the best real estate brokerage for new agents — why mentorship, fair splits, training, and a low-fee cloud stack matter more than a fancy office. We break down Real Broker’s onboarding and pay model (an 85/15 split with a $12,000 annual cap), the virtual support and training that speeds rookie productivity, and how stock awards + revenue share create long-term wealth paths for new licensees. Whether you’re picking your first brokerage or helping a newly licensed teammate compare offers, this episode gives a practical checklist to evaluate fit and avoid early mistakes.

What you’ll get from this episode:

• Exact explanation of Real’s 85/15 split and the $12,000 cap — what “capping” means for your next closings and cash flow.

• How cloud-based onboarding, live contract clinics, and on-demand academy sessions shorten the learning curve for new agents.

• A plain-language walkthrough of stock grants and the five-tier revenue-share program — how passive income seeds can form early in your career.
