Income property operates in a different way than residential property. Generally speaking, an agent will get a listing for an apartment building, then present this listing to a select group of clients that this agent has an established relationship with. The understanding is that for giving the client the “opportunity” to purchase the apartment building, the agent will represent this client in the purchase of the building. Thus, there will be dual agency with the agent representing both the buyer and the seller. This is a classic conflict of interest which forces the sales price to be a compromise on both sides.

I believe if I get a listing, my job is to do everything I can to get my client the best possible price for the building. My goal IS NOT to try to make a commission on both sides of the sale.

If you are a seller, and you’d like to get top price for your investment, please call me at 310-288-9744. I will put the building on the M.L.S. and I will market the building to the top agents in town. By doing this, you know your building will get top market price because I am bringing it to a large enough audience to actually create a market.

If you are a buyer and you’d like to take advantage of your current relationship with an agent, then please go to consultations to see how I can help you get the best price for an apartment building.
