Take your gross commission income last year. Divide it by your total hours worked.

Now think about how many of those hours were showing coordination, CRM updates, follow-up texts, maintenance intake, document chasing.

That's your admin tax. For most solo agents it's 30 to 40 percent of their time; paid at full commission rate to do work that doesn't require a license.

Matilda handles that layer. You keep the rate. You drop the tax.
