@Xuming Yu, I'm usually the one who is more accommodating of tenants, but not in this case.

The way I look at this situation is this:Let's say the rent you can get at that unit is $1000 as is.

Easiest thing is to align with those people.

My wife and I tend to look for Commercial buildings with a residential component to them.

We're looking at downtown homes with pools or homes near the beach. 

Our property management company wants to sell 3 apartment blocks for us approximate value 2m maybe slightly more, can we ask them to accept 4% sales commission?
