On: Is there an incentive to give equity to a real estate broker?

Oh, god. This was one of the things I took as a sign of impending collapse in the dot-com bubble: startups were paying their rent in equity.

We'll never learn, will we?

I'm not talking about the owner but the broker, he is the guy in the middle making the deal happen.

I started to ask experienced entrepreneurs around me, none have heard of that before.
