Question about commission schedules

[Nate H.]

I'm a new agent in Raleigh, NC and I was wondering what the standard commission schedule is. I'll be working with a small, local firm and there are no desk fees or anything - we don't have an office yet.

Also, if a broker is too busy to commit all his time to a certain listing and he lets me do the leg work (taking measurements, pictures, putting it on mls, negotiating, etc) would it be considered normal for that broker to get a cut of the final commission?

Thanks!
