Real Estate Agent - Syracuse
About the role
Redfin is seeking qualified real‑estate agents to join its top‑producing teams or work independently. Agents plug into Redfin’s platform— the nation’s #1 brokerage site with 52 million monthly visitors and 600 million luxury‑listing views each year— and receive highly competitive commissions while Redfin covers business expenses.
Customer Opportunities & Support
- Redfin.com customers: receive approximately 100 new customers each year from Redfin, plus your existing sphere of influence.
- Technology: proprietary CRM that manages deals, tracks pipelines, and alerts you to potential client activity.
- Support team: dedicated transaction coordinator, listing coordinator, and a team of showing agents.
- Inside sales team: qualifies opportunities, books appointments directly on your calendar, and handles event logistics.
Compensation
This is a commission‑based role with unlimited upside. Commissions vary by deal source (agent‑generated vs. Redfin‑generated) with higher splits for repeat Redfin clients. In‑year accelerators can unlock higher commissions after reaching a sales‑volume threshold.

Expected commission range is $25,000 – $665,000, with an average of $115,000.
