Compass reviews

lack of overall transparency, size of a mature company, processes of a startup

Every year they lowered my split. Within 2 years my split had been decreased by 12%. Have been doing this for 15 years and I don't really have time to negotiate a split with a brokerage every year. This ends up causing politics. Not to mention the extra 5% fee charged by Compass on top of your split for resources. The managers definitely have their favorites. This is the reason why Keller Williams and EXP have such a good model. Everyone has the same split with the opportunity to get 100% if you cap. Compass seems to have great tech, but they are doing things the old way on the other segments of their business. They will continue to lose realtors and money if they keep things like this. Additionally, a lot of their tech is starting to get outsourced so there is really not much differentiating them from your typical broker out there.
