Hi All, I would like to know that if there is any other way to work as a salesperson but being an independent contractor?If someone can't be self employed would it be possible "to employ" the broker?Or any other solution? Thank you

Not legally.

Generally, Article 12-A of the Real Property Law provides that anyone who, on behalf of another and for a fee, 1) negotiates a sale, exchange or rental of real property, 2) collects rent, or 3) negotiates a commercial loan secured by a mortgage must be licensed as a real estate broker.

All licensed real estate salespersons in New York are required to work under the supervision of a real estate broker. A salesperson cannot operate independently.
