Okay, let’s tackle this. So Ed Elliott has 40 years of experience as a REALTOR, which is extremely rare and valuable. The median annual salary for real estate agents in the US is around $61,960, but top performers can earn upwards of $250,000 or more. Considering Ed’s extensive experience, I’d estimate his hourly rate to be on the lower end of the spectrum. A common range for experienced real estate agents is $50-$100 per hour, but since Ed is a REALTOR with 40 years of experience, I’ll round down to $75 per hour.
