Okay, let’s tackle this. So Cathy has 28 years of experience as a Real Estate Associate Broker, which is a significant amount of time. Her skills in real estate, sales, marketing, and customer service are in demand. Location is Florence, MA, which is a smaller market compared to Boston. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, real estate agents in the Boston-Cambridge-Nashua, MA-NH metropolitan area have a median annual salary of around $85,000. However, Cathy’s experience and skills suggest she could charge a premium. Considering her role as an Associate Broker, she may be able to charge higher rates than your average real estate agent. Maybe around $100–$150 per hour? But considering her extensive experience, I’ll estimate around $125.
