CAPPING: 100% Commission

Once an associate of ours hits their “ cap, ” they make 100% commission for the rest of their anniversary year We make it simple to go from paying a commission split to keeping your full commission and coach you how to get there as quickly as possible

$1,000,000 – $25,000 COMMISSION

$20,000

Join the Capper Club!

Here is a breakdown of how fast you can go from paying a commission split to keeping your full commission:

For new agents, the first 3 transactions are on a 50/50 split After that, the standard commission split is 70/30 70% to the agent, 30% to the brokerage. When our agents cap, they have the option to advance their commission split based on their production For example: 75/25 or 80/20

An average new agent with a 70/30 split can cap after closing around $3.8 million in closed transactions and receive 100% commission within their anniversary year

RED Day is Keller Williams’ annual day of service, held every second Thursday in May as part of our legacy worth leaving It reflects our commitment to giving back and making a meaningful impact in the communities we serve What began as a company-wide initiative has grown into a powerful tradition, with agents, staff, and loved ones coming together each year to serve others.

This year, KW Advisors Palo Alto proudly partnered with the Ecumenical Hunger Program to lend a helping hand and make a difference locally.

KW Cares is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to serving Keller Williams Realty associates and their dependent family members experiencing hardship as a result of a sudden emergency We step in swiftly to provide financial grants and aid when these unforeseen emergencies create difficult circumstances for our KW associates.

This is the very heartbeat of Keller Williams culture in action: striving to find and serve the higher purpose of business through philanthropic giving in a way that embodies values rooted in giving, caring and sharing

We believe in taking care of our own.

GrassrootsOrganizationisFormed

KW Cares began as a grassroots effort Our story began when a collection of Keller Williams agents, owners, and staff members came together with a mission to support fellow associates in need, in the spirit of "Family helping Family "
