Google "Real Estate Broker vs Agent", you will know the difference.
Basically, Agents work for brokers, and the brokers have more managerial responsibilities, which do not make them better agents in terms real estate transactions.
Totally agreed.
On top of that, in order to become a RE broker, one must first be a RE licensed sales-rep for 3 years and pass a broker license exam.
A RE broker can open up his/her own RE company.
To the public in general, a RE broker is not much different from a RE sales agent in terms of professional services he/she provided.
real estate broker 真正的是指有所有有关房屋买卖执照的机构或组织。他甚至可以操作拍卖。需要有许多专业的知识。而 real estate sales可以是在此机构里工作的个体,也可以是独立的个人。但权力仅限于房屋的买卖---这就是为什么许多人考个执照就做起来了。
我的了解也就这些。如果有误还请纠正。
