- Have experience in either sales or customer service
- Thrive in a structured, routine-oriented environment with a set schedule you can plan around

- Value having ongoing training, support, and coaching to grow your skills and profitablity
- Can join our team in person at our East Peoria office

Your earning potential with AMRE
We operate on a tiered commission system that rewards longevity and productivity with AMRE.
You’ll advance through four tiers with progressively higher commission percentages as your time and production with the company increase.
While many agencies talk solely about commission split, AMRE focuses on growing your total income—what really matters at the end of the day.
Time and time again, we’ve seen our collective investment in training, support, and marketing reward our agents with higher-than-average sales and annual income.
That’s why we guarantee you’ll make at least $60,000 your first year working with us—because our company is structured in a unique way that is proven to pay.
Take home $60,000 your first year, or we'll pay the difference. Guaranteed.
Our promise:
We’re so confident that AMRE will equip you for success, we guarantee that you’ll make at least $60,000 your first year working with us—and if you don’t, we’ll pay the difference.Your commitment:
To qualify for this guarantee, you need to meet a few requirements:
- You must be a licensed real estate agent in Illinois and a member of good standing with the Peoria Area Association of Realtors
- You must be employed full time by AMRE for 12 consecutive months
- You agree to complete all required meetings and training, including a 2-week AMRE Onboarding Training and the AMRE Apprenticeship Program
- You agree to be present at the office at scheduled times, for regular meetings, training, and coaching as outlined in our agreement

This is just an overview—we'll gladly answer questions and discuss this in more detail with any qualified applicant.
We'll be honest: this opportunity isn't for everyone.
AMRE isn't the best fit for those who:
Want to do everything on their own
At AMRE, you'll partner with a team of specialists—no need to handle it all yourself. We provide professional photographers, staging experts, field reps, marketing specialists, and more. This enables you to focus 100% on supporting (and impressing) your clients.
Prefer flexibility over focus and structure
We have families and lives outside of our jobs, so we spend our working hours with intention and focus. Our structured schedule enables us to close a higher volume of sales more efficiently, and ultimately bring home more to our families.
Want to be the “face” of their business
We operate as a team under one trusted brand, valuing collaboration over competition. That means our agents benefit from the established reputation of AMRE without spending hours (and dollars) every week on their own branding and marketing.
Are looking for short-term work or just a little extra income
If you're all-in with real estate as a career, you’ll see great rewards at AMRE. That’s why we offer the $60,000/year guarantee—because we provide so much training and support, we’re certain that any committed agent will meet or surpass that income goal.
Are you all-in? If so, we're ready to welcome you!

“I've been licensed for almost 8 years and am so thankful to be at Adam Merrick Real Estate. I have previously worked in other industries and even another RE brokerage, and the consistent sales opportunities, leadership, coaching, support staff, systems, and technology are unmatched. Family changes led me into another industry for a short time, and it's right that I'm back HOME with AMRE.”
