CRE 101 - Leasing Broker Wants Floorplan with total sft and net rentable
I gave my building to my broker to rep and pull in new tenants, but she wants the floor plans showing sqft, and net rentable set. She wants me to pay approx 2k to her colleague to get the layout.

If I'm going to be paying her commissions in the future, isn't it in her best interest to do this sort of work or are brokers just that lazy?

Like do some leg work woman.

Does anyone have any suggestions for inexpensive ways to get floor plans?

Thanks in adv
