How do I find a good commercial real estate broker?

Whether or not leasing commercial space is a new experience for you, there are significant benefits to working with a commercial real estate broker . In addition to saving you time and money, an experienced broker will contribute specialist knowledge of the local market , the property type you need representation for, and will handle negotiations on your behalf in your best interest. To start, it is important for you to have a good understanding of what kind of broker you need. For instance, there are differences between a tenant broker and a listing broker . Also important at the start is to have a clear idea of what kind of space (or tenant) you are looking for and what (if any) particular needs and requirements you might have. And, while it is good to get a referral, you should interview several brokers to better gauge who you feel would best represent your interests.
