Each RE/MAX franchise has its own fee and compensation structure. No way to generalize except to say it's essentially a 100% commission after you pay your 5% franchise fee. As for other fees, that's up to each office.

There are several different plans - even in our city, we have several franchises and each offers a different split. I would phone the one you're interested in and ask.

It varies from office to office and locally there are different levels. An agent that doesn't work out of the office pays less fees. I don't know any further details. I've never worked for this company.

The cost is the penalty one pays for not being a good negotiator.

REMAX does not give safe harbor to newbies, meaning everyone comes on board with experience of a historic book of business.

Both are leverageable when negotiating the monthly fee. Here in my region the fee ranges from 400 to 1500 monthly. I am unaware of anyone staying around at $1,500. But I am aware of brokers saying, "Look, I'm giving you a break." 

It is a test of the fabric from which the prospective agent is made.
