When working with Brokers and other Intermediaries in cases where we are not getting paid by our buyer, our Finder or Referrals fees are based on a percentage of the broker or intermediaries sell-side fees.  Our fees are success-based.  "You only pay for results!”

Again, in some instances our buyer may be paying our fees.  In those cases we can work with you to present your seller to our buyers and you do not have to pay us a share of your sell-side fee.

We do not share any confidential information with our buyers without the appropriate legal documents protecting confidentiality and your relationship with your client and our relationship with our clients being in place.

You maintain strict control of disclosure of any confidential information and the delivery of information to the buyer prospect.  You are aware at all times of what the buyer prospect has received.  And by direct communication with them are kept apprised of their level of interest and where things stand in the negotiations.
