Mentorships, newer agents, etc...For agents wanting to know more about how to start out in real estate...

 I used to mentor agents when I was an Associate Broker at Windermere Real Estate Company.  I actually liked it quite a bit!  I am going to start mentoring a couple of new agents pretty soon with my Seattle Brokerage Cooper Jacobs Real Estate Services....   I want to give them a realistic approach to real estate and how we are doing business today.  I also will be making them blog because I truly believe in blogging as a vital part of being a successful REALTOR. 

I am still looking at break downs for commissions for any agents I bring on , but I am thinking of charging them  30% for the first six months to a year if they need a mentorship - me being the deciding factor on the need portion of the equation.  I really think that first year and even second year real estate agents in some cases need some hand holding in order to be really successful.  Going forward, I would only charge a flat 10% on all transactions.
