Let’s Talk

Commercial Brokerage With an Owner’s Mindset at Every Stage

Aushco approaches brokerage with the perspective of people who have owned, developed, leased, and managed commercial properties themselves.

That means looking beyond the immediate transaction to understand how today’s decision could affect occupancy, operations, flexibility, and long-term value. The property you buy, the tenant you place, or the terms you agree to now can shape your options for years to come.

We represent buyers, sellers, landlords, and tenants across Maryland and Northern Virginia, with specialized experience in medical and professional office properties.

Buying. Acquisition search, due diligence support and negotiation, with a clear view of how the property will perform after closing.

Selling. Pricing, marketing and buyer qualification aimed at the right outcome, not just the fastest close.

Leasing. Tenant and landlord representation, from space requirements and lease terms through renewals.

Buy, Sell and Lease Brokerage Services

Buying, selling, or leasing a commercial property comes with different decisions. Choose the path that best fits what you’re trying to accomplish.

Not every client fits neatly into one category. An owner might sell one building to buy another, or a growing practice might lease now while looking to purchase later.

Sales: Aushco’s sale commissions are typically paid by the seller, but not always. If the seller does not agree to pay the broker who represents the buyer, the buyer may have to pay that commission. Sale commissions are calculated as a percentage of the total sales price.

Leases: Lease commissions are typically paid by the landlord and are calculated as a percentage of the gross rents the landlord will receive over the lease term.

In a triple-net (NNN) lease, the tenant pays base rent plus its share of property taxes, insurance, and common-area maintenance. These terms vary by lease, so it is important to review exactly what additional costs are billed to each tenant.

It depends on the property type and pricing.

Selling: Existing buildings with in-place cash flow tend to sell quicker, typically in 4 to 8 months. Land, empty buildings, buildings that need a lot of work, poorly located properties, and properties priced too high can take much longer. Once a property is under contract, closing is typically 45 to 180 days later, depending on what the buyer and seller have agreed to.

Leasing: Timing depends on property type, location, and demand. Medical office is always in demand when the location is good, the quality of the building meets medical standards, and the pricing is reasonable. Even so, leasing can take 3 to 18 months depending on market conditions. A typical lease negotiation takes 6 to 30 weeks, depending on the urgency and decision-making process of the tenant’s business.

No. Aushco does not represent both sides of the same deal. We facilitate a letter of intent (LOI) or contract for the unrepresented party and give them the material facts they need to make a decision, but we owe and keep our fiduciary responsibility to our contracted client.
