About this file

This is a GSA Template R100 Broker Project Exhibit for a Real Estate Lease Procurement (RLP). The document establishes broker commission and pricing requirements for GSA lease solicitations where Jones Lang LaSalle Americas Inc. serves as the authorized contractor real estate broker representing GSA.

The exhibit requires offerors to pay broker commissions consistent with local business practices if they are already paying commissions to other agents or representatives. All commissions must be disclosed by offerors, including amounts for their own agents and GSA's broker, on GSA Form 1217. Commissions are negotiated based on the firm lease term only, excluding option periods or terms beyond the firm term. An executed commission agreement must accompany the initial offer. The exhibit acknowledges potential dual agency situations where the broker's company may represent both GSA and other offerors, requiring written acknowledgement from all parties. GSA's broker will forego a percentage of earned commissions (Commission Credit), which must be applied as equal monthly deductions against rental payments until fully recaptured, not to exceed the monthly shell rental. For pricing evaluation, the Commission Credit is treated as a rent deduction per the award method, while the broker commission amount is not evaluated separately since its value is included in rental consideration. Offerors must submit both an executed Broker Commission Agreement and a Dual Agency Acknowledgement Statement with their proposals, with broker compensation expressed as a percentage on GSA Form 1364.

BP 1.01 BROKER COMMISSION AND COMMISSION CREDIT (FEB 2026)

A. For the purposes of this RLP, JONES LANG LASALLE AMERICAS 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. For the benefit of the Government, the Broker has agreed to forego a percentage of any commission that it is entitled to receive in connection with the contemplated Lease. This amount must be specifically set forth at time of lease award. The resulting total dollar value of the foregone commission (the Commission Credit) must be applied in equal monthly amounts against rental payments due and owing under the Lease. The rental amount payable must be reduced by the Commission Credit at the commencement of the Lease, over the minimum number of months that will not exceed the monthly shell rental, until the Commission Credit has been fully recaptured. The parties agree to execute a Lease Amendment setting forth the full nature, extent, terms, and conditions of commissions paid to the Broker and the Commission Credit to be applied against the Government’s rental payment obligations under the Lease. Commissions and/or credits 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.

D. For purposes of price evaluation, the Commission Credit must be treated as a deduction from the rent in accordance with the Method of Award.

The amount of any commission paid to the Broker must not be considered separately as part of this price evaluation since the value of the commission is included in the rental consideration.
