All of the fees that are paid to the real estate agent have to go through the broker, so there really is no money that is passing the hands of the real estate agent themselves, keep that in mind.  Only the real estate broker can pay the real estate agent their commissions and they sign a listing agreement with you, the seller.

Real estate fees and commissions honestly vary throughout the world, so it really depends and you definitely have to do your research on that one
