Commission & Transactions
Receipt of Commission
All compensation received or earned by Independent Contractor for performing licensed activities must be paid directly to the Company.
Should the Independent Contractor expect to receive any compensation from anyone, other than the party represented, the Independent Contractor must disclose this in writing and obtain written consent from the party represented to receive such compensation. The Independent Contractor must provide the Brokerage and Company a written copy of such disclosure and consent. If a party represented by the Independent Contractor does not agree to pay a service provider in the transaction, the Independent Contractor must also obtain written consent from that party to accept any compensation from the service provider. The Independent Contractor must also provide the Brokerage and Company a written copy of such consent.
Payment of Commission
All compensation earned by Independent Contractor will be paid by the Company directly to the Independent Contractor directly, or through the Independent Contractor's PREC (Personal Real Estate Corporation), unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the Company and Independent Contractor. The Company will pay compensation to the Independent Contractor's PREC only if the Independent Contractor provides evidence of being properly licensed and is in good standing with the Company and the applicable provincial body.
If a commission is paid to the Company, then the compensation paid to the Independent Contractor will be paid within 48 hours of the funds clearing into the Company's account.
The Contractor shall be entitled to a commission on sales, rental/lease transactions, opinions of value broker price opinions ("BPOs"), and referrals (collectively "Transactions") as follows: income retained by the Company after referrals and concessions, but prior to commission split ("Gross Commission Income"), shall be split at an agreed-upon rate to the Contractor ("Contractor Dollar Amount") and to the Company ("Company Dollar") on all Transactions closed by the Contractor.
Commission Split
85%
Agent Commission
Percentage of Gross Commission received by the Agent
15%
Company Commission
Percentage of Gross Commission retained by Epique Realty
Company will receive 15% of Gross Commission and Agent will receive 85% of Gross Commission. The Agent's commission may be split in the event of a referral payout, loan repayment, or third party obligation by Agent. Once an Agent hits their "Commission Cap", they will no longer be subject to a commission split. Should any transactions be subject to any federal, provincial state or local taxes, the split will be calculated after the tax is deducted.
Transaction Fee
0.1% of the Gross Sales Price per Sale Transaction
This does not apply to residential leases. Transaction fees cap at $700 CAD per transaction. Transaction fees are deducted from all transactions. Transaction fees paid do not apply toward commission caps or Power Award status. Once capped, agents will continue to pay transaction fees on every transaction. In the event of multiple contractors working the same side of a transaction, the transaction fee will be taken off the top before the split occurs. Once an agent has paid $7,000 CAD in Transaction Fees, the per-transaction fee cap reduces to a maximum of $350 CAD per transaction. For PowerTeamsâ„¢, the per-transaction fee is always $350 CAD.
Transaction fees are separate from commission splits and continue to apply even after an agent has reached their commission cap.
Commission Cap
A Commission Cap puts a cap on the Company Commission split, not the Agent Commission. The cap is an annual cap that resets on an agent's Anniversary Date. Commission Caps only apply to Commission Splits. Monthly dues, payments, transaction fees, or processing fees do not count towards an agent's Commission Cap.
Declining Caps
In order to reward our long-standing contractors, Epique Realty offers a reducing/declining commission cap. Each Agent Anniversary year, the Commission Cap will be reduced by $1,000 CAD per year until the Contractor reaches the lowest Cap of $15,000 CAD per year. New caps are introduced the first day after the agent's anniversary date.
This declining cap structure rewards agent loyalty and provides increasing financial benefits the longer you remain with Epique Realty.
Personal Transactions
A Personal Transaction is any Lease, Purchase or Sale for which Contractor has an ownership or lease interest in the subject property, whether through Contractor's own name, a spouse's name, or a business entity or revocable trust that is owned and/or controlled by Contractor and/or Contractor's spouse.
Personal Transaction Commission Split
100% for ONE deal per anniversary year
Transaction Fee
0.1% Transaction Fee still applies to personal transactions
Revenue Share Impact
Personal Transaction commissions are not included in Revenue Share Plan calculations
Commission Cap Impact
Personal deals do not count towards Commission Caps

Any benefits or perks added, without a cost increase to the recipient of that benefit, will be considered and promoted as a free benefit or perk.

Any misuse or abuse of benefits—including but not limited to unauthorised sharing, mark-up, re-sale, or misrepresentation of access—constitutes a violation of this Agreement.

Modification or Termination
This program, like all Company programs, is subject to modification or termination at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Termination & Vesting Explained
We take our partnership seriously, but sometimes things don't work out. Here's what happens if your agreement with Epique is terminated:
1
Involuntary Termination
If you breach our agreement or fail to meet our standards, we can cancel your contract and end your sponsorship. Any unvested revenue share will be forfeited.
Pending revenue share from previous month will not be paid out if involuntary termination occurs before the date in which Rev Share is paid.
2
Early Retirement / Voluntary Departure (Non-Competing)
Once your revenue share is fully vested after 36 months, you're free to leave Epique and continue receiving your vested earnings as long as you comply with the terms of this agreement and remain in good standing.
Vested Rev Share includes all agents in your downline. A $99/month program fee will apply to remain in good standing and continue receiving Revenue Share. This will not gain you access to any additional benefits or systems from Epique. Your revenue share may shrink as agents leave or it may grow as they join.
3
Competing Company
If you join a competitor after leaving the Company, your revenue share ends immediately and all vested and unvested earnings revert back to Epique. This cannot be reversed.
4
Incapacitation or Death
In the unfortunate event of your permanent incapacitation or passing, your full revenue share stream can transfer to a designated beneficiary, no vesting required.
Remember, Epique reserves the right to modify or terminate this program at any time. Adherence to our policies is essential.
