I just got my license for AZ two weeks ago, I've spoken to about 5 companies, and I didn't realize it would be so expensive with annual fees/ monthly fees/commission+transaction fees. I am about to sign on with KW, but I am hearing that lots of agents just waste money and dont get deals frequently. I'm not sure how best to choose a brokerage or find a fair one, I've heard to go to boutique brokers, but I'm not sure how to actually find them... any advice for a newbie would be appreciated! :)
