Berger Commercial Realty Corp

What Berger Commercial Realty Corp does

Berger Commercial Realty Corp is a privately held, full-service commercial real estate firm headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, founded in 1998 by Lloyd C. Berger. The firm operates across South Florida — specifically Broward, Palm Beach, and Miami-Dade counties — through two offices (Fort Lauderdale headquarters and Boynton Beach regional office) and a 65+ person team of licensed brokers, property managers, accountants, and maintenance staff. It is independently owned with no parent company or private equity backing, and is a member of CORFAC International, a global network of independent commercial real estate firms.

The company's core product is an integrated commercial real estate platform organized around five service lines: commercial brokerage (office, industrial, retail, land, and flex space transactions), landlord representation, tenant representation, property management (covering a 7+ million-square-foot portfolio of office, industrial, retail, medical, and mixed-use assets), and receiverships/distressed asset management operated through the Berger Special Assets subsidiary established in 2008. Supporting services include quarterly market reports, an interactive property search portal, and the Berger Bites educational video series. No proprietary technology, AI/ML capabilities, or technical platform architecture is disclosed; the offering is relationship-driven local market execution paired with standard CRE marketing channels (CoStar, LoopNet, CCIM, CORFAC listings).

Berger Commercial Realty generates revenue through two streams: transaction-based brokerage commissions on commercial property sales and leases, and recurring property management fees on its 7+ million-square-foot managed portfolio. The go-to-market is sales-led, executed by direct engagement between Senior Vice Presidents, brokers, and clients across property owners, investors, tenants, and lenders/bankruptcy trustees (the latter via the receivership subsidiary). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; commissions are negotiated per-transaction and management fees are customized by property type, size, and scope. Customer industries span healthcare, automotive, financial services, and real estate investment, with named engagements including Holy Cross Hospital, Holman Automotive, Wells Fargo, Hersh Equity Group, and Sand Lake Realty.

Direct peers

• NAI Global: Global network of independent commercial real estate firms with an affiliation model nearly identical to CORFAC. Comparable because both compete for the same mid-market independent brokerage and property management mandates in the U.S.
• Avison Young: Employee-owned global commercial real estate services firm with significant South Florida operations. Direct competitor in office, industrial, and retail brokerage plus property management.
• Franklin Street: Independently owned commercial real estate firm headquartered in Tampa with strong Florida presence in brokerage, property management, and capital markets. Comparable mid-size independent operating in overlapping Florida geographies.
• SVN International (Commercial Properties): Affiliation-based network of independently owned commercial brokerages providing brokerage, property management, and investment services. Comparable business model to Berger's CORFAC-franchised operation.
• Marcus & Millichap: National investment-sales brokerage with a strong Florida industrial and multifamily presence. Competes directly with Berger's investment sales practice and off-market industrial deal flow.
• Stiles Corporation: Fort Lauderdale-based, independently owned commercial real estate firm offering brokerage, property management, and investment services across South Florida. Most direct comparable in geography, ownership structure, and service mix.

Broad incumbents

• CBRE: Largest global commercial real estate services firm with deep South Florida presence. Competes across brokerage, property management, and capital markets at the institutional tier above Berger's mid-market focus.
• JLL (Jones Lang LaSalle): Global CRE services and investment firm with active Florida operations. Competes for large industrial portfolio mandates and institutional property management assignments in the same South Florida submarkets.
• Colliers: Global CRE services firm with a major South Florida operation. Competes in the same office, industrial, and investment sales segments but with a far larger institutional platform and research capability.
• Cushman & Wakefield: Top-tier global CRE firm with substantial South Florida presence. Direct overlap in brokerage and property management but operates at institutional scale with capital-markets advantages.
