If you are looking at RLTY Capital for a commercial leasing commission advance, the key thing to understand is that RLTY is a generalist. It funds commissions across all of real estate, residential and commercial, sales and rentals, whereas Cash For Commish works only in commercial leasing. For a commercial leasing broker, that difference in focus is the heart of the comparison. This page lays out where each fits.
RLTY Capital, part of RLTYco, launched in 2021 and acquires pending real estate commissions across both residential and commercial transactions, including sales and rentals. Its roots are in residential real estate, it is backed by well-known residential industry figures, and it has expanded into a broader suite that includes legal, tax, and healthcare services for agents. On the advance itself, RLTY funds up to around 80 percent of a commission, often within a day, using a soft credit check that does not affect your score, and advertises transparent pricing with no hidden fees and a grace period for delayed closings.
One detail commercial brokers should note: based on public information, RLTY's model has historically included recourse, meaning if the underlying deal falls through, the agent is responsible for repaying the advance. Confirm the current terms directly, and compare that to how any provider you consider handles a deal that does not close.
The difference is focus. RLTY spreads across all of real estate, which means a commercial leasing commission is one of many transaction types it handles. Cash For Commish does only commercial leasing, so occupancy triggers, build-out delays, and the execution-occupancy split are the entire business rather than an edge case. A specialist tends to verify and price those deals with less friction, which is the broader argument made in the guide on why specialists beat generalists. Cash For Commish also publishes a flat, time-based fee of 3 1/3 percent per month with no add-on charges.
Confirm current RLTY terms before publishing.
If your work is commercial leasing, a specialist that lives in occupancy triggers and build-out timing is usually the better fit, and the published flat rate makes the cost easy to plan. If you do a mix of residential and commercial and want one provider across all of it, plus the wider suite of services, RLTY's generalist model may appeal. Get each provider's total dollar cost on your specific deal, and confirm how each handles a deal that does not close.
Cash For Commish is a commercial leasing specialist with a published flat fee, which suits brokers who want a provider focused entirely on leasing deals rather than an all-real-estate generalist. Compare on total dollar cost for your deal.
Both. RLTY funds residential and commercial commissions, sales and rentals, with residential roots. That generalist breadth is the main contrast with a commercial leasing specialist. Confirm current scope directly.
It depends on the provider. Based on public information, RLTY's model has included recourse to the agent if a deal falls through. Always confirm how a provider handles a deal that does not close before signing.
