Finley reads every closing, split, and royalty and tells you what the brokerage kept, by office and by agent. Finley knows every office, every entity, every agent’s plan and cap, and every pending property on the board. You never explain your own brokerage twice.

The median brokerage kept eighteen cents of every commission dollar in 2025, by the industry’s own benchmark. At that margin a one-point drift in splits is the year’s profit. Finley reads what you keep by office, team, agent, and month, after the co-op, the referral, and the royalty.
A capped producer with the TC on call and the biggest marketing tab can leave less behind than a 70/30 agent who closes eleven sides and asks for nothing. Finley weighs each agent’s production against the cost of carrying them and ranks the roster by what stays.
Tiered splits, anniversary resets, cap crossovers, co-op splits, referral fees, chargebacks. Each is a number typed into a CDA on closing day, and the title company pays against it. Finley recomputes every disbursement against the agent’s plan, ties every royalty to its closing, and flags what should never have left.
One LLC for the brokerage, another for the second office, a property management arm, a title joint venture, the building. Finley holds all of it and answers as one brokerage. When a buyer prices you on the trailing twelve, the number is already there.
An agent costs money before the first side and takes the pipeline when they leave. Finley knows what each recruit cost, how many months of company dollar paid it back, and who on the roster is a flight risk today. The next offer letter is a number you can defend.
Connected in minutes. No migration, nothing for your controller to maintain. Your back office keeps running transactions, disbursements, and the trust ledger. Finley reads what it produces.
Finley keeps what it learns: your seasonality, which listings sit, which agents cap in June, which lender closes late every time. Your operations manager carries eleven years of that in her head. The next lender, the next franchisor, the next buyer of your brokerage start from zero. Finley started once, and never starts over.
A rolling forecast, kept current: every pending weighted by its contingencies, every payout after a closing, rent and payroll on the first, the royalty at settlement. Thirteen weeks by default, a year when a decision needs it. You know in October whether January can carry the second office lease.
Rolling forecast · weekly
Your banker knows your balance. The franchisor knows your sides. Nobody pricing your acquisition has seen your agent retention. Ask Finley how to finance the forty-agent shop across town: cash at close with an earn-out on company dollar, the SBA loan, the bank note, what each does to your cash, and which one to take.
One caveat: confirm the January trough before you set the cash at close.
Rates jump. The Fed meets. An appeals court closes the book on the settlement. The headline says it happened. Finley says which of your pendings are on financing, what the payment jump does to the buyer at the top of your board, and what a slower fall does to the first of the month.

CFO recommendation
Re-lock the three floating buyers before the Fed meets on the 16th. I can rank the pendings by rate exposure now.Rank the pipeline
What you keep after the split, the co-op, the referral, and the royalty, by office, team, agent, and month.
Where you hold trust funds, the three-way match read continuously. Payouts tied to CDAs and W-9s all year, so January 1099s tie out.
Every disbursement recomputed against the agent’s plan, cap, and anniversary. Every royalty tied to its closing.
Thirteen weeks by default, a year when a decision needs it. Every pending weighted by its contingencies, every payout, the first of the month.
Every brokerage deserves to be known.
You spent twenty years building a brokerage agents want to join. Finley knows all of it, and it never takes another job.
