Real Estate agents in Dubai work on a commission basis.
The commission structure varies from agency to agency. Often the amount an agent is paid depends on their seniority and the volume of sales they have closed. Agencies usually work on a commission-based salary system where agents can keep between 20 and 60 per cent of the commission earned. However, these percentages can vary from agency to agency and can be influenced by other factors.
At NST Real Estate, for example, agents receive a larger percentage of commission if they personally refer the client.
