RealUp, a national commercial real estate listing website, has announced a new partnership agreement with TradeAddresses.com, a referral property listing network.

This partnership will allow thousands of RealUp.com commercial listings to automatically appear in TradeAddresses’ property catalog via the RealUp API web service.

"RealUp is very pleased to announce this new agreement with TradeAddresses.com," said Brian Randy Funk, President of RealUp. "This is an additional way RealUp will help get commercial property sold and increase exposure for real estate listings."

The RealUp API allows other websites to import and export RealUp property listings and has been customized for TradeAddresses. The RealUp API is currently used by CCIM, Century 21, Sperry Van Ness as well as the RealUp iPhone app.

"We are confident that our relationship with RealUp will prove to be synergistic for both of our companies," said Hans Hansson, president of TradeAddresses. "Our marketing of many of RealUp's listing will greatly expand the reach for those listing and provide more opportunity for RealUp members to close more transactions."

OfficeBroker.com, one of the top 3 executive suite web brokers, has recently announced that they are changing from a commisson based model to a subscription model. According to an email received by one of our Executive Suite members:

"In January 2012 officebroker.com will be changing the way in which it markets office space, removing the commission structure and replacing it with a simple monthly subscription for listing your office building(s) on our website.

This new subscription model will result in your direct contact details being added to officebroker.com. Instead of charging a commission, you will instead pay just $75 per building location listed per month.

Summary of Changes:

·     Client will be able to contact YOU directly from our website!!  Your contact details will be added to each of your building locations listed on officebroker.com enabling you to get their details before your competitors would!

·     Additionally, any inquiries officebroker.com receive will still be forwarded to you but with no commission payable should you close a sale

·      A simple monthly fee of only $75 per building listed per month to be charged from January 1^st 2012

Best of all you don’t need to do anything to benefit from this change!  Your listings will be updated automatically from January 1^st 2012. "

This is specific to the US. I am not sure how they are handling other markets. It will be interesting to see how well this is accepted by executive suite office space operators. OfficeBroker does have a good track record in providing leads to centers, but I would image only the ones in which have had success with their leads will subscribe.  The smaller centers will probably not see the benefit.  The next question will be whether or not they remove the listings for the properties that do not subscribe or use them as bait for those who do. Another alternative may be that they will keep the non-subscribers on a commission basis.  We will have to wait to see.
