As a real estate agent, your income is commission based and your brokerage does not provide health insurance. VS Health Benefits finds you affordable coverage built for self-employed agents, and as a 1099 agent your premiums are usually tax deductible.
When you are a commission-based real estate agent, your brokerage does not cover your health insurance. But there are real options that make coverage affordable between closings, plus a tax advantage W-2 employees do not get.
We compare every option across carriers so you only pay for what you actually need.
Many real estate agents qualify for income-based subsidies that bring premiums well below sticker price. We calculate your credit and find the best plan within your tier.

"As a self-employed designer I was overwhelmed with ACA choices. VS Health Benefits cut through the noise and found me a plan with my doctors in-network at a great price."
"I did not realize I qualified for a subsidy. Now I pay under $60 a month for solid coverage. Took maybe 20 minutes from start to finish."
"Switched from paying $600 a month for cobra to $120 with a better plan. VS Health Benefits showed me options I never knew existed."
Yes. Real estate agents are self-employed and can access the same ACA marketplace plans, private PPO plans, and individual market products as anyone else. We help you compare them all at no cost.
Self-employed individuals who pay their own premiums may be able to deduct 100% of their health insurance costs on their federal tax return. This is a major financial advantage compared to being a traditional employee. Ask your tax advisor for your specific situation.
Many real estate agents qualify for premium tax credits on the ACA marketplace. Your eligibility is based on your estimated net income for the year. We calculate your subsidy before comparing plans so you know exactly what you will pay.
You can update your income estimate anytime on the ACA marketplace to adjust your subsidies. We help you set the right estimate upfront to avoid a surprise at tax time.
We check provider networks before recommending any plan. If keeping your current doctors is a priority, we confirm they are in-network before you enroll.
