Becoming a licensed real estate broker is an important step for experienced agents who want to advance their careers. A broker license offers greater independence, higher earning potential, and the ability to build a business.
Whether you want to start your own brokerage or gain more control over your career, becoming a broker is a smart investment.
If you are in Orlando, FL, LEAP Academy offers a state-approved Real Estate Broker Pre-License Course. This course will help you qualify and pass the exam.
Why Become a Licensed Real Estate Broker?
1. Earn Higher Commissions
As a licensed broker, you can keep 100% of your commissions instead of splitting them with a brokerage. You can also earn additional income by hiring agents and taking a share of their commissions.
2. More Career Flexibility
Brokers have the option to:
- Work independently
- Open their own brokerage
- Manage rental properties
- Specialize in commercial or luxury real estate
3. Expand Your Real Estate Business
With a broker license, you can grow your own team of agents and earn passive income. This allows you to scale your business instead of relying solely on personal sales.
