Use case - Real Estate

Pay every agent exactly what they earned on every deal.

You run a real estate agency. Your agents close deals with varying sale prices, different commission splits, and the occasional transaction that falls through. Coritra tracks every deal, applies the right formula per agent, and produces settlement-ready payouts at month-end, without the spreadsheet work or the month-end arguments.

The challenge

Real estate commissions are messy by nature.

No two deals are alike. Sale prices vary, commission splits differ per agent, deals collapse after everyone assumed they were done. Without a dedicated system, someone ends up overpaid, underpaid, or in dispute.

Deals fall through after the agent was credited

A sale collapses during the notary process. The agent was already shown a commission in your system. Reversing it cleanly, with a record of why, means manual work in a system that was never designed for it.

Every agent has their own commission terms

Junior agents get 50%, seniors get 65%, your top performer negotiated 75% last year. Tracking all those individual agreements in a spreadsheet is error-prone and a confidentiality problem.

Co-brokered deals split the math in two

Two agents share a deal. Each has a different split. The agency also takes its cut from the gross commission. Calculating and auditing all three amounts correctly, every time, is tedious when done by hand.

How Coritra helps

One system for every deal, every agent, every split.

From the moment a deal is recorded to the final commission payment, Coritra handles the full lifecycle. Every formula is explicit, every cancellation is clean, and every payout is traceable to its source.

Agent management

One profile per agent. Their full deal history, always visible.

Individual agent profiles

Each agent is a named partner in Coritra. Their unique ID is passed with every deal attribution, giving you a full, filterable history of their closed transactions and earned commissions.

Partner IDs for precise attribution

When your platform records a closed deal, it passes the agent's partner ID. Coritra ties the event to exactly the right agent, no manual matching, no ambiguity even when multiple agents are involved in the same transaction.

Deal schemas that capture what matters

Define the fields your platform must include with each deal: sale price, property type, location, transaction role (buyer-side, seller-side). Schemas enforce structure so your formulas always compute on complete, validated data.

Commission rules

Individual splits for every agent, with no room for error.

Per-agent commission formulas

Each agent gets their own formula tied to their partner profile. Junior agent at 50%, senior at 65%, top performer at 75%. Each formula is private, versioned, and only ever applied to that agent's deals.

Conditional rules based on deal data

Pay a different rate for buyer-side vs. seller-side transactions, or apply a bonus when the sale price exceeds a threshold. Build any conditional logic in the visual formula editor without writing a line of code.

Rate renegotiations without history rewrites

When an agent earns a better split, set the new rate with a future start date. Coritra applies it going forward. Every deal before that date stays on the old rate, locked and immutable.

Cancellations & settlements

When a deal falls through, the commission disappears cleanly.

Clean deal cancellations with a reason

If a transaction collapses, cancel the attribution in Coritra with a reason. The associated commission is zeroed out automatically. The original deal and the cancellation are both preserved in the audit log.

Monthly settlements per agent

At month-end, create a settlement for each agent. Coritra groups all their confirmed commissions, nets out any cancelled deals, and calculates the exact amount owed. No manual reconciliation needed.

Payout reports agents can verify themselves

Every settlement generates a PDF or CSV with a line for each deal, the sale price, the applied rate, and the resulting commission. Agents see exactly how their number was calculated, which ends disputes before they start.

Getting started

Your agency, running on accurate commissions from day one.

Add your agents, connect your deal management platform, and let Coritra handle the rest. Setup takes minutes, not an engineering sprint.

01

Add your agents and define their splits

Create a workspace for your agency. Add each agent as a partner and build their commission formula in the visual editor. Their unique partner ID is used by your platform to attribute every deal correctly.

  • One profile and formula per agent
  • No-code formula builder
  • Unique partner ID per agent
02

Your platform records each closed deal

When a transaction closes in your deal management system, it calls the Coritra API with the deal details: sale price, property type, agent ID, and transaction role. Coritra validates the event and calculates the commission automatically.

  • Real-time deal attribution via API
  • Schema validation on every event
  • Commission split calculated instantly
03

Settle agent payouts every month

At month-end, create a settlement for each agent. Coritra nets all their confirmed commissions, subtracts any cancelled deals, and generates a detailed payout report. Every line traces back to its originating transaction.

  • Cancelled deals deducted automatically
  • PDF and CSV payout reports
  • Full audit trail, deal by deal
