The terms 'Co-Broker' and 'Co-Broker Commission'—also known as 'Cooperating Broker' and 'Commission Split,' refer to the collaborative efforts between two or more real estate brokers to sell a property and the shared commission earned from the sale.
A Commission Split refers to the arrangement of sharing commissions earned between a sales agent and sponsoring broker, or between the selling broker and listing broker. This arrangement ensures that all parties involved in the transaction are compensated according to their contribution.
A cooperating broker is a real estate professional who agrees to share the commission with another broker, usually the one representing the other party in a property transaction.
