Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need to use a broker?
As a business owner or facilities manager, you're already an experienced negotiator. You may wonder why you need the services of a licensed commercial real estate professional to assist with your transaction.

Most brokers and agents specialize in one type of commercial real estate, such as office space, retail space, or industrial space. They have significant experience with these types of deals and will know what to watch out for. During negotiations, the broker's knowledge of current market conditions gives you more power and leverage. And on the buy or lease side of the transaction, you really have nothing to lose -- your broker's commission is paid by the seller.

How much does a broker charge?
If you're buying or leasing, the commission is typically paid by the seller or landlord, and is split between the seller's agent and the buyer's agent. Therefore, you have no downside in choosing to be represented by a broker.
