Commercial mortgage broker
A commercial mortgage broker acts as an intermediary who brokers mortgage loans on behalf of businesses or individuals who needs a commercial loan. The loan is provided by the commercial lender securing a commercial property of the borrower. In developed mortgage markets today like the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and United Arab Emirates, mortgage brokers are the largest sellers of mortgage products for lenders. Some commercial mortgage brokers offer loans but most of them do not provide commercial mortgage loans. A commercial mortgage broker is often used to connect the borrower with potential lenders, obtain multiple quotes, and to manage the financing process. Market competitiveness 
As markets for commercial mortgages have become more competitive, the role of the commercial mortgage broker has become more popular and a necessity. Because of this competitiveness, some lenders do not even consider applications made directly by borrowers; instead, they prefer applications made by brokers, as they know the whole process and market values and rates very well. A mortgage broker also helps customers make better choices about loans and lenders. Fees 
There is no law or any official announced fees or commission for a commercial mortgage broker. Some brokers charge a fee to the lenders, and others take commission, which they receive from the lenders whom they introduce to borrowers. By country
