RLP No. 5WY0078 – GSA Broker Project Exhibit J Summary
This document is Exhibit J of a GSA Real Estate Lease Procurement (RLP), detailing broker commission requirements and procedures for the leasing transaction. CARPENTER/ROBBINS COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE, INC. serves as the authorized contractor real estate broker representing GSA. Offerors must pay commissions to the Broker consistent with local business practices as evidenced through an executed brokerage agreement. The commission will be negotiated between the Offeror and Broker based on the Firm Term of the Lease only, excluding option periods or terms beyond the Firm Term. Offerors must disclose all commissions and fees paid to their representatives and to GSA's Broker in blocks 31a and 31b respectively on GSA Form 1217 (Lessors Annual Cost Statement), and submit an executed commission agreement with their initial offer.
Offerors acknowledge the potential for dual agency situations where the Broker's Company may represent both GSA and another Offeror, with notification and written acknowledgement required if dual agency occurs. Commissions are treated as confidential financial information and cannot be publicly disclosed without GSA's Lease Contracting Officer (LCO) consent. On GSA Form 1364 (Proposal to Lease Space), compensation to GSA's Broker must be entered in block 26.a as a percentage reflecting the Offeror-Broker agreement. Notably, broker commissions are not considered separately in price evaluation as their value is included in the overall rental consideration. Required submittals include an executed Broker Commission Agreement (BP 1.01 A) and a Dual Agency Acknowledgement Statement, marked as N/A in the current exhibit structure.

BP 1.01 BROKER COMMISSION (MAR 2026)
A. For the purposes of this RLP, CARPENTER/ROBBINS COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE, INC. (the Broker) is the authorized contractor real estate broker representing GSA. The Government expects the Lessor to pay a commission to the Broker. By submitting an offer, the Offeror agrees that if the Offeror is paying a commission or fee in connection with this Lease to a listing agent, an offering agent, or broker, property manager, developer, or any other agent or representative, then the Offeror will pay a commission to the Broker to which the Broker would ordinarily be entitled consistent with local business practices, as evidenced through a brokerage agreement between the Offeror and the Broker.
The commission will be negotiated between the Offeror and the Broker and will be based on a Lease term not to exceed the Firm Term of the Lease contemplated by this RLP. Commissions will not be negotiated or collected on option periods or for Lease terms beyond the Firm Term of the Lease. As part of the offer, the Offeror must disclose all commissions and/or fees to be paid by the Offeror including both the Offeror’s agent(s), broker(s), property manager, developer or any other agent or representative and the Broker. The Offeror must enter the commission amounts for its representative and the amount to GSA’s Broker in blocks 31a and 31b respectively on GSA Form 1217, Lessors Annual Cost Statement. An executed commission agreement reflecting this agreement must be submitted with the initial offer.
B. Offerors are advised that there is a potential for a dual agency situation to arise under this procurement, whereby the Broker’s Company may represent both GSA and another Offeror under this lease action. By submitting an offer, the Offeror acknowledges the potential for a dual agency situation. Should there be an actual dual agency, the Broker will notify all Offerors of the actual dual agency and request written acknowledgement statements from all Offerors.
C. Commissions must be treated as confidential financial information and Offerors will refrain from public disclosure or using the information for any other purpose than that for which it was furnished without consent of the GSA LCO.
