There is no such thing as a "Village Realtor." The Villages salespeople are only agents. The hype is that you are buying a lifestyle but yes -- the agents do get a commission.

If the MLS agent's commission (yes, that person was a Realtor) was a 5% commission, that 5% was split between the selling office and the listing office. The salespeople then got their split from their broker from the 2.5%.
