Without volume, it would not be worth it especially if the BPO's were only paying 0-$45.
A broker would have a logistical nightmare accepting the bpo payments directly to the office. They would not state who did the BPO and I can guarantee you would not be able to keep them on track no matter what they tell you. You would pick up triple the work to keep track of your own checks and on top of that pay the broker a split ?
I know many brokers that will grant you 100% of the bpo income. If your broker runs a small house and has few agents, he or she will probably want your income splits.
Just find one that is successful, understanding and has a office policy, structure that works for you and the broker fairly.
Office split policy has changed and differs greatly depending on the business model of the office.

Mine does it problem free and has provided me this service for many years, almost a decade. It has gotten a little more challenging since other agents have come aboard the BPO bandwagon. They manage well. All my income belongs to my broker first. Then per our agreement he pays me.

I am given 100% of BPO earnings and comissions.
I pay my broker about $1250 every month.
I work from home.

I pay my broker about $1250 every month.

How is this number figured?

What are you paying your broker $1,250 a month for? Whats the process for you to become your own broker in VA?

That figure would usually indicate "REMAX".

Hey BOSS--It's not as much as it seems. Most RE/MAX folkles pay a good bit more. At the end of the month the split, if you work it backwards based on what I take in usually is aroud 85/15--that's about an $8000 month. Of course no 2 months are alike, so that is approximate.

1) Pays for the REMAX balloon
2) Pays for shared office expense, which I do not use
Pays for personal expenses he fronts and I owe him in return such as E and O, MLS dues, etc.

I am a broker in VA so I suppose you were maybe asking why I have not gone out on my own. The cost of 1 and 2 would be my incentive, correct? That is about $900/month...say 10k a year for giggles and grins.

I have though it over, but that 10k is not going into my bank account.

I leave my broker, who is awesome by the way. I now get start up expenses of becoming a new broker and joining 3 MLS systems and other related start up costs of signs/cards etc.

I try and replace my $14/month E and O with a comparable policy that will likey run me 10 times as much.

I find someone to handle all of escrows and accoutning on a piece meal basis.

What would be left at the end of the year of that 10k? I am not really sure, but it is going to be a couple of grand maybe.

Also I lose the balloon. It is a very powerful brand that brings me at least a deal a year.

I am on the fence, leaning to staying put.
