The Sunbelt of Will and Kendall Counties Business Broker Opportunity
All Sunbelt business brokers are retained by our local office and operate as independent contractors. Brokers are typically paid on a commission only basis. All commissions are contingent on the consummation of either a business sale or a business buyer or seller purchasing one of Sunbelt’s other related services, such as business or asset valuations. Like other commission-based professions, your compensation will be directly tied to your own success. It typically takes six months to consummate your first sale as a broker, so it is important that you have the cash reserves to sustain your lifestyle during this start-up phase of your new career. However, the financial opportunity for a successful broker is significant. We have many highly sophisticated brokers within the Sunbelt network that earn annual commission income of $250,000 to $500,000 and in some cases more.
