Realtors are professionals that help buyers and sellers connect. A lot of Realtors also assist with rentals. They connect tenants with landlords and sometimes will maintain a property for the landlords. Realtors work by connecting together the two parties and charging a commission to help bring the deal together. They charge commission only to the seller of a property but sometimes for rentals the commission is billed to each side of the transaction being the buyer and seller. Realtors often calculate the fee as a percentage of the closing price and as part of the rent when the deal is a lease or rental.
