Ten Reasons to Use a Commercial Buyers/Tenants Broker

I can save you time: As your agent I will do the homework for you; make you aware of all properties that seem to meet your needs, gather data on each property, and handle all of the arrangements for you to view and evaluate each property.

• I can help you find the "best fit". With my extensive knowledge of Tampa Bay, and Tampa Bay commercial real estate, I will work to insure that any property or space you acquire is truly appropriate for your needs. Unlike when you work with the owner's or seller's representative or "listing agent", I have no incentive to steer you to any one particular property.
• I can broaden your choices: With me as your agent you will see all available properties on the market, not just the ones listed by any one firm or agent.
• I can disclose information to you that other agents can't: As your buyer's agent or tenant's representative I can disclose information to you concerning the seller's or owner's motivation, prior transaction data, or other information that the listing agent may not disclose to you.
• I can keep private information that other agents cannot: You may disclose information to me about your situation. As a seller's s or owner's agent, I might be required to transmit that information to the seller. As your exclusive agent I do not have that requirement.
• I can help you avoid a huge conflict of interest: A listing agent may agree to show you properties other than the ones that they have listed. However, they may make only half as much money if you do not buy or lease one of their listings so, they have a powerful incentive to steer and influence you. My firm is small and is specialized in tenant and buyer representation.  Thus it is extremely unlikely that any of the properties that you will be considering will be represented by us.
• I can make your entire experience less stressful, more safe, and more fun: The experience of locating, evaluating, and acquiring commercial property through several competing listing, seller's, or tenant's agents can be harrowing. Each agent has an "all or nothing" interest in you acquiring or leasing their property and, in many ways, their interests may be opposed to your interests. Contrast this to working with me as your exclusive buyer's agent. I have no financial interest in which property you select, I have the time to develop a personal relationship with you and to understand your needs in depth. My fifteen years of experience are applied to making sure that your interests are looked after. You will probably find a "night and day" difference in the quality of the two experiences, and in the outcome.
• I can help you keep it simple: As your exclusive buyer's or tenant's agent I will be your one contact. This is much simpler than maintaining a contact for each property.
• My services generally will not cost you anything. Generally my services are free to tenants and buyers. This is because changes in Florida Real Estate Law allow me to represent buyers and tenants but to be paid through the listing agent as part of the normal cooperation or brokerage fee sharing arrangement. This is a "no lose" situation for buyers and tenants.
