100% Commission for Monterey County Agents

Merge operates under MLSListings for Monterey County, the primary MLS for the Central California coast. Your local association is MCAR (Monterey County Association of REALTORS), giving you access to Monterey Peninsula and Salinas Valley listings.

Pro is $99/month plus a $1,000 brokerage fee per represented closing. Premier is $495 per month, with a $0 Merge brokerage fee per closing and unlimited transactions. Required TC costs and applicable additional charges are separate. At 5 or more closings per year, Premier has lower annual brokerage fees than Pro. Every transaction must use a professional transaction coordinator (TC). Choose your own TC and pay them directly, or use Merge's preferred TC at $495 per file. TC costs are separate from brokerage fees on both plans. New licensees who have never completed a transaction pay an additional $600 per transaction on their first 3 transactions. No commission splits on standard transactions. A 5% split applies only to commission earned above $4M on sales over $4M.
