Also most realtors work for an agency, which keeps a big piece of their cut.

  Right - which is why I put a 2% take home instead of a 3% which the seller would pay per agent. "As you become a more established real estate agent, you can often negotiate a split that leans more in your favor. For example, you may receive 70%, and your brokerage will get 30%. But, in the beginning, your brokerage is helping you get clients, so your share is often more modest." https://www.aceableagent.com/career-center/georgia/what-is-the-commission-for-real-estate-agents-in-georgia/ https://www.aceableagent.com/career-center/georgia/what-is-t... Also per the same article "Today's Georgia real estate agent makes an average of $69,150. Even with the split, this is about 10% higher than the national average" Not sure which is more accurate but $60k is what I'd have in my mind for average. The hustle would have a bias in making carpenters salary look high to make their point more appealing...a real estate agent website has a bias in making agent salaries look high.
