Epidemiology is the study of health in populations to understand the causes and patterns of health and illness. The Epidemiology Program, a research division of VA's Office of Patient Care Services, conducts research studies and surveillance (the collection and analysis of data) on the health of Veterans. The focus is primarily on Veterans who served in combat deployments and those who use VA health care facilities.
The latest thorough assessment of real estate commission fees was released in 2011 by Inman News. After polling hundreds of real estate brokers and agents, their data show that Realtor commissions for each real estate agent involved in a real estate transaction average between 2% and 3%.
Commissions are typically paid by the property sellers andâby lawâare negotiable. âStandardâ real estate commissions typically range from 3% to 7% for residential sales, depending on the local area. That commission is split between the buyerâs agent and the sellerâs agent. For this example, weâll use 6%. If you sell a home for $400,000, the 6% commission is $24,000. If another agent was involved in the transaction, your split becomes 3%, or $12,000.
