If I sell privately I\u2019m fine.  I won\u2019t make much, but I can lay-off the bldg.  if I pay a broker 70-80k commission, I will still have a debt.  I\u2019d be better off giving the building back to the bank, but that\u2019s my last resort.  Seems pretty unethical.", "replies": [{"id": "gr2muqv", "text": "What\u2019s the value of your building? A broker fee should be around 5% of the total value of the building. It certainly shouldn\u2019t put you in more debt than the building is worth.\n\nLook at companies like Colliers, Avison Young, JLL, CBRE, Cushman etc. They\u2019re the big players in the space.", "replies": [{"id": "gr2shl3", "text": "Thanks.  The brokers locally have all told me 7%.  The sales price they have each suggested is the value of the mortgage.

I\u2019d check with a lawyer but if you\u2019re at risk of losing money I\u2019d \u201cdisclaim\u201d the inheritance and let the bank deal with it (assuming it doesn\u2019t ruin your credit). Check with a lawyer. \n\nAnother thing to keep in mind: If you need to refinance the property in the next couple years and the value has gone down as you\u2019ve mentioned, you\u2019re going to need to inject cash or sell the property.  This is because no bank will finance up to 100% of its value when you put a new mortgage on the property.", "replies": [], "depth": 5}], "depth": 4}], "depth": 3}], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}, {"id": "gr2ls2j", "text": "Post it for lease/sale on loopnet &amp; crexi", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "gr2mvoy", "text": "Not the information you asked for, but if it\u2019s not too late, you can disclaim an inheritance.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "gr2n5aq", "text": "Craigslist for residential.
