Under the laws of all states in this country as well as the regulations of the Department of Real Estate in all states, a real estate agent of brokerage cannot fee split his or her real estate commissions with someone who is not a licensed real estate agent.The best way to try and deal with the commission issue that you are writing about is to have an addendum signed where the purchase price of the home you are buying is reduced by the amount of what the real estate commission would be if you had a licensee representing you in the transaction.
