Concessions/Commissions

Received an offer on one of our properties and was wondering how concessions/ commissions worked. Do both concessions and commission come off the final price? Such has, you have an offer for 103K: 6% concessions and 5% commission. Are these numbers based solely on the 103K sales price, or do you subtract the commission off of the 103K (5180) then take off concession out of $97,820?

Sorry if it is a little confusing just trying to determine our bottom line based off this current offer. Thanks for all the help

Both numbers come directly out of the contract sales price. In this case, you'd be giving up 11% of $103K in commissions and concessions.

That is what I assumed, just wanted to have some "fact" to back that up. Thanks for the reply J Scott..
