📢 Brokers, here’s a question for you! Before you refer an attorney, do you give them details about your client and the transaction? If not, I highly recommend you start as we all know preparation is the key to success! Recently, I received an informative email from a broker before speaking to his client that was a home run. The email laid out our specific/unique details including, who the client was, that guarantors were involved, the purchasers financing situation, and concerns about the building. This made my initial phone call with the client so much more productive and efficient. The more prepared we are, the quicker we can help the client feel comfortable about the process. Set your deals up for success by educating your referral sources. A few minutes of prep can be a game changer! #RealEstateTips #BrokerLife #ClientCare #Teamwork #DealSuccess *Attorney Advertising Information Only. Prior results do not guarantee future success*

🚫 𝗡𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴! CRE Brokers, Before you consider adjusting your commission, ask yourself: What am I getting in return? Whether it’s a release of liability, a solid contract for your next deal, or another form of service that adds value to your business, ensure there’s a fair exchange. In an environment where every penny counts, and investors are looking for the best deal possible, it’s easy to feel pressured into making concessions. But remember, you bring immense value to the table with your expertise, network, and negotiation skills. 💡 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱! - 𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑳𝒊𝒂𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚: Ensure your commission agreement protects you from future claims and 1099 them. - 𝑭𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 𝑩𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔: Negotiate terms that secure your involvement (in writing📝) for upcoming deals. - 𝑽𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒆-𝑨𝒅𝒅𝒆𝒅 𝑹𝒆𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕: Maybe, you just need to list out the the value you added and stand your ground. The reality is, while investors are in the hunt for maximizing their returns, your professional service as a broker should also be recognized and valued accordingly! Stand firm in your worth for you and your family—Never give something for Nothing!!

Respect and take care of your broker relationships! This is real estate 101 and lack of this principal is quickest way to spot a novice, bad actor, or at minimum, someone who lacks knowledge of this part of the biz. When I had my little development co, I used to go to ICSC trade shows. I'd hand these out to brokers I'd meet in hopes they'd bring me off-market deal flow. Virtually everything we did back then was sourced off market. We always respected our brokers - treated them very well. The truth is I was never confident enough in my construction pricing to make the underwriting work unless I was getting what I felt was a GREAT buy, providing big margin for error. These always came off markets from our best brokers. I’m always in disbelief when I hear investors or other talk poorly or disparagingly about brokers. By in large they are so hard working, eat what they kill, and tons of business savvy. I admire the heck out of anyone makes a living this way. They earn every dollar and more. I’m not sure sending $1 to anyone would work these days. But the principal still holds true. Be memorable, unique, and most importantly take care of your broker relationships. They are SOLID gold!

Now more than ever the biggest variable in getting tough deals approved is what broker you are working with. Most of us have access to sources with similar guidelines. Who is going to fight for your deals...Push back on underwriting and appeal decisions when the initial answer is no. Tell the story of why they will be successful, get financials when needed and let us get it approved. Our reputation is strong and our conversations and justification of purchase often times moves the needle. We don't have a magic wand, but we grind harder than the next guy. We understand that one deal can make your month, quarter or year and treat them as such.
