How Much Will A Real Estate Broker Charge Me To List And Then Lease My Commercial Property?

By Brian and Jeff On July 1, 2009 Under Commercial Real Estate Loans

You need to give more info about your property. What type – retail, office, industrial?? How many square feet? What town, state?
I focus on retail – and as an example, on a 3000 SF retail space, the commission could be 5.5 – 6% of the total lease.
$30/SF (base rent) on a 3000 SF space on a 10 yr term = $54,000 @ 6%
$22/SF on a 1500 SF on a 5 yr term = $9,075 @ 5.5%
On larger SF deals (eg, big box), the broker is often paid x$/SF.

They might charge you a percentage of the term of the lease, for example one year lease total times a percentage.
