Not even remotely true...


Suppose it might depend on what world one might live in.
I'm sure you could find a realtor that would charge you $1.5M to sell a $30M property but there are hosts of commercial firms that cap their commissions at realistic rates.

Many multi million dollar properties are doing good to even have 10 to 15% of equity in them, nobody is going to split their total proceeds from a sale with a realtor just because they brought a buyer to the table..




Yep, all sorts of lenders willing to finance 85-90% of what is essentially raw land* with little to no earning potential...

Actual seller's commission, I'm sure would be less than 6%. But $100k? Time to wakey wakey, eggs and bakey

*considering the ratio of land value to improvements
