That is the DEFINITION of real estate sales agent, a sales person who works under the supervision of a broker. The self defined broker is 'one who collects the fees.' When it comes to supervision..'Fuh git aboot it!"
The same (new agent) individual can choose to get their brokers license.
Or they could choose to work under the guidance of an attorney.
Laws in your state may be different.
Those two options will reveal how very little the newbies know and why they should be subject to persistent, enduring, and invasive supervision.
Your next question will be, 'Must I join NAR to be an agent?' The answer is no, you don't. However, NONE of the brokers with whom you will affiliate will take you on board unless you join the club.
Choice for the new real estate agent is an illusion.
