Possibly less. I did mine through Coldwell Banker, but you don't have to commit with said brokerage just because you went through their class.  As far as brokers to work for, I would highly recommend looking at eXp Realty, LLC.  They are blowing up right now and I see endless amount of agents who have been loyal to one of your main brokerages you see everywhere that are all moving to working for eXp Realty.  Best of luck to you whichever route you decide to go!</p></blockquote><p></p>
