I would tell my friend that I'm happy to look after the referral but I can only pay one referral fee. If you can afford to pay 2 you're making too much money. :)

Hey Bryan question for ya

What do the other agents expect,$$ and what price range is the referral in.

Tell them that you will pay your regular referral fee and they have to split it between themselves.

Bravo Mark's got it

Twenty million dollar referral - pay everyone in the chain including agents who knew the agent that referred the puppy. $500k to a million you can pay 2.  Under 500k, pay only 1.  Under 100k, ask the referring agent for $500 extra.

You  only need to pay the one who gave you the referral. It is up to her to pay the other agent. My question is, why did she give it to you in the first place? Is she no longer an agent? Not in the area? Just curious.

Unless you are the broker, you ask your broker to sign the referral form for the percentage he/she would like to pay and to whom they would like to pay it.  IMO, you (or your broker) has no obligation to pay any other brokerage than is listed on the referral form.  Whatever form the person that referred the customer to you signed with the brokerage that referred the customer to them dictates what % her/his broker needs to pay out on what fee they receive from your broker.
