Frequently Asked Questions
How much do commercial mortgage brokers charge?
This will depend on a few variables; namely, the term and the type of mortgage. Typically, most mortgage brokers’ commissions will fluctuate between the range of about 0.5% to 3% of the total amount of the mortgage.
Do mortgage brokers do commercial loans?
Yes, mortgage brokers have many contacts that provide funding for commercial buildings. A commercial mortgage broker will be familiar with current rates and the guidelines for funding from many lenders. The broker would match the borrower’s information with the appropriate lender.
How do commercial mortgage brokers get paid?
Mortgage brokers collect commissions (also referred to as a finder’s fee) when mortgages are closed. Typically, the commission is a single transaction that your broker receives when your mortgage is funded. However, in other circumstances, the broker might also receive another small commission when your mortgage is renewed.
Who pays a commercial mortgage broker?
Commercial mortgage brokers may be paid either by the lender or by the borrower. Some lenders provide fees to the broker for bringing clients to them for loans. Typically, the borrower pays the fee out of the funds when the mortgage is advanced. All fees paid are disclosed in the mortgage documents.
