What CORFAC International does

CORFAC International (legal entity: Corporate Facility Advisors, Inc.) is a Des Plaines, Illinois-based network of independent commercial real estate brokerage firms founded in 1989. The organization coordinates 50+ member firms operating across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific, marketing itself under the tagline "Locally Owned. Globally Connected." Its headquarters is lean — approximately four staff members — focused on network coordination rather than direct brokerage execution.

The network delivers commercial real estate services through its member firms rather than centralized operations. Service lines span office, industrial, and retail brokerage; investment sales; tenant and landlord representation; multifamily transactions; property management; and corporate advisory. Supporting platforms include a public-facing website (corfac.com), a property listings directory, a member firm directory, a CORFAC Connect insights/research blog, and an event calendar for member meetings and industry conferences. Marketing channels are primarily content, earned media, and social channels (LinkedIn, X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), supplemented by a media-relations partnership with KT Public Relations. No proprietary technology platform, API, or AI/ML capabilities are disclosed.

The business model is membership-based: CORFAC generates revenue by charging membership fees to its network of independent firms, while member firms retain ownership of their end-client relationships and deal economics. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Member firms cross-refer deals across geographies, share market intelligence, and leverage the CORFAC brand for credibility, while CORFAC itself operates a small central staff led by CEO Jonathan Salk and supported by a 2026 President elected from the membership.
