Our Mission
The AXEN Realty Luxury Division exists to elevate real estate professionals at every stage of their luxury journey. We empower rising agents with the training and knowledge to confidently enter the luxury market, while providing established luxury and ultra-luxury advisors with world-class branding, tools, support, networking, and marketing resources to expand their influence and grow their business.
We are the first agent-centric luxury platform for real estate agents, and our mission is to ensure that agents come first in every decision we make. From the low flat fee per transaction to the four levels of revenue share, luxury agents will keep more of their money at AXEN Realty.
Our mission is to set a new standard for excellence in luxury real estate brokerages by focusing on the agents instead of the brokerage brand, ensuring our advisors have the opportunity to thrive in serving the most discerning clients.
Division Purpose
Structured Pathway
We provide a clear, structured pathway for agents transitioning into the luxury market, ensuring they have the knowledge, skills, and confidence to serve high-net-worth clients effectively.

Prestigious Community
We foster a community built on collaboration, prestige, and excellence, where luxury advisors can connect, share insights, and elevate each other's success in serving discerning clientele.
Definition of Luxury
At AXEN Luxury, we maintain the highest standards by adhering to industry-recognized luxury thresholds and classifications.
1
Standardard
Luxury is defined strictly by ILHM (Institute for Luxury Home Marketing) thresholds at the county level, ensuring consistent and recognized luxury standards across all markets.

Signature
$5M+ U.S. listings (or equivalent internationally) represent our Signature Luxury category, serving the most exclusive properties and ultra-high-net-worth clients.

"High-end agents should keep their high-end commissions."
Our company dollar structure is capped at $2,500 per transaction, with equal distribution across four revenue share levels at $625 or 25% each.
If GCI is $7,500-$9,999, flat fee for that transaction is $1,875 with $468.75 in each level of revenue share. If GCI is $5,000-$7,499, flat fee for that transaction is $1,250 with $312.50 in each level of revenue share. If GCI is less than $5,000, flat fee for the transaction is $1,000 with $250 in each level of revenue share.
  • *If an agent takes a listing or has a closing that is less than 75% of the ILHM's county threshhold, the agent may choose a $795 or $595 transaction fee in lieu of $995. The marketing will be decreased for the $795 level, and not included at all for the $595 level. For marketing and exposure, we encourage the agent to keep the $995 level.
