From what has been posted:

Commissions, being a fee for services, are taxable in NM (as part of
the Gross Receipts Tax, which in actually practice resembles a sales
tax).

So if you sold a house -
1) You'd pay the commission
2) You'd pay the tax on the commission.
End of story.

NOBODY is claiming that you pay sales tax on the sale of the house
itself. The COMMISSION is what is taxed, not the house sale.
