REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION REFRESHER Whether it’s the first time you’ve ever sold real estate, or your 5th time, a real estate transaction refresher never hurt! Here are some of the real estate specific terms you’ll want to know. Real Estate Brokers and Real Estate Agents Listing agreements are made between real estate brokers and you, the seller. A real estate agent works for the licensed real estate broker. The commission for the sale of your home will be paid to the real estate broker. The real estate broker will pay a split of that commission to the seller and buyer agents where applicable.
