Real estate brokers are people who help others to sell or purchase property. Most of the time the property being sold or purchased is a house or empty land. The broker must understand the market value of each property under consideration. They should be able to assess the positive and negative aspects of each property and know how to advertise and negotiate a sale. They often work with financial institutions and help people obtain the loans that are needed to buy a property. They normally work on commission and earn a small percentage from each sale they complete.

The average pay for a Real Estate Broker is $56,045 per year. The highest paying skills associated with this job are Operations Management and Sales.
