Day-to-day operating brief

What Commercial Agent work looks like in practice

A Commercial Agent markets offices, industrial, retail or investment property for sale or lease. Terms should identify sector and territory, client instructions, measurements and particulars, inspections, applicant qualification, data rooms, offers, heads of terms, fees, commission, conflicts and handover to lawyers. The agent should not promise planning use, condition, incentives or binding terms without evidence and authority. Commercial particulars may combine measurements, photographs, rates information, service charges and lease summaries sourced from different parties. The agent should verify what can reasonably be checked and state where prospects need independent advice. Terms can cover joint agents, online data rooms, boards, keys and inspection safety in vacant or unfinished premises. Offer logs should preserve conditions and timing so the client receives an accurate comparison rather than only headline price. Vacant-property inspections should account for alarms, utilities, unsafe areas and lone work, with keys and access codes returned through an auditable office process.

  • Prepare marketing and inspection information.
