Attempts to capture your client

LGA is proud to offer referrals to brokers when you send us a rental property client. Our standard referral fee is $250, with higher fees paid for luxury homes leasing at $10,000/mo or more. For every referral you send to LGA, in addition to our referral fee, we will enter your name into a drawing for a $1,000 gift card to your choice of Apple, Amazon, or the Bellevue Collection!

Aside from referral fees, however, is the assurance that your client will be redirected back to you at the end of our management cycle. LGA has never conducted buyer or seller transactions, and we make no attempt to “capture” your client for their future sales business. Our goal is to hand them right back to you when the time comes to sell the property, or if they are looking at investing in other properties.

Fees are paid for the referral of rental property owners upon the successful execution of a lease agreement. If you would like to send a tenant referral our way, we would direct them to our search page to browse available listings, or discuss a paid relocation tour with one of our leasing agents (referral fees are only paid for property owner client referrals, not tenants).

For Sales Brokers

Frequently Asked Questions

The best way for a licensed broker to show an LGAPM listing is to reference the showing instructions on the Northwest MLS website. If you have any questions, the best person to ask is the listing agent directly.

When a licensed broker refers a client to us (homeowner, landlord), we document you as the referral source and pay a referral fee once a lease is executed. Your name is retained on file as the referring agent, and in the future when the client informs us of their intent to sell the property, we reconnect them with you. Note that we do NOT ask for a referral fee back from you at this time.

Referral fees and leasing commissions are paid upon the successful execution of a lease agreement. Commissions are paid approximately every two weeks (payable to your brokerage). We are happy to complete NWMLS Form 11 for referrals, and if you have a commission disbursement form for leasing commissions we are happy to sign off on this as needed as well.

We ask that you do NOT re-create any of our listings in any other format. We appreciate you sharing links to our direct listings, but do not permit any outside parties to advertise them in any other way.

We are unable to provide legal advice, but may be able to recommend an attorney to suit your situation.
