We introduce. Nothing else.
This page sets out the role NowDealSheet plays in commercial real estate transactions. It is written in plain language and reflects how the platform actually behaves, in every jurisdiction in which we operate.
NowDealSheet (the "Platform") is a private, membership-based introduction platform for off-market commercial real estate.
The Platform's sole function is to introduce a verified seller (or their authorised representative) to a verified buyer (or their authorised representative), after both parties have been reviewed by a NowDealSheet administrator and the buyer has electronically signed the NowDealSheet Standard NDA in relation to the specific deal.
The introduction is the whole product. Everything the Platform does — anonymised listings, AI-assisted intake, human review, NDA gating, audit trails — exists solely to make that introduction credible and safe.
NowDealSheet is not a real estate broker, estate agent, sales agent, buyer's agent or letting agent.
NowDealSheet is not a financial adviser, tax adviser, legal adviser or investment adviser.
NowDealSheet is not a transaction manager, deal coordinator, escrow agent or client-money handler.
NowDealSheet is not a party to any transaction that may result from an introduction made on the Platform.
NowDealSheet does not verify, endorse or warrant the accuracy, completeness or merit of any information supplied by a seller. Buyers must conduct their own independent due diligence.
A seller creates an anonymised listing and submits it for administrator review. The Platform draws AI assistance from the seller's own information memorandum to produce a draft — a human administrator reviews and approves before publication.
A buyer registers, provides identifying information and requests access. The administrator reviews the buyer's application before permitting NDA-gated introductions.
When a buyer wishes to be introduced to the seller of a specific deal, they electronically sign the NowDealSheet Standard NDA and acknowledge the applicable buyer success fee and terms. The signature, typed name, fee acknowledgement, timestamp, IP address and user-agent are recorded as an immutable audit entry.
The administrator reviews the signed NDA and, if the buyer meets the criteria set by the seller (if any), approves the introduction. At that point — and only at that point — the buyer sees the full identity of the seller and the confidential deal information, and the seller sees the identity of the buyer.
From the moment of introduction, all negotiation, diligence, contracting, exchange and completion occur directly between the buyer and the seller (and their own professional advisers). The Platform's involvement ends at the introduction.
NowDealSheet is free for sellers and their authorised representatives to list commercial real estate opportunities during the current launch period. Buyers may register and browse anonymised opportunities at no charge.
Where a transaction completes following an introduction made through NowDealSheet, a buyer success fee of 0.1% of the final transaction value applies. The applicable fee and terms will be disclosed to the buyer before the introduction is made and, where required, expressly accepted by the buyer.
No buyer success fee is payable where an introduction does not result in a completed transaction.
NowDealSheet may introduce additional commercial products or services in the future. Any such commercial option will be published on the Platform's Pricing page and applicable terms will be disclosed before a user incurs a charge.
NowDealSheet does not hold, transmit, escrow, invest or otherwise handle funds passing between introduced parties in relation to a transaction. Any fees payable to NowDealSheet are paid separately and directly to NowDealSheet for its introduction service.
Every buyer must electronically sign the NowDealSheet Standard NDA before being introduced to a seller. The NDA is between the buyer, the seller and NowDealSheet as facilitator.
The NDA obliges the buyer to treat information disclosed after the introduction as strictly confidential and to use it solely for the purpose of evaluating the deal.
NowDealSheet itself is bound by equivalent confidentiality duties: we will not disclose the identity of any buyer or seller, nor the confidential terms of any deal, to any third party save as required by law.
In future, sellers may be permitted to substitute their own bespoke NDA in place of the Standard NDA. When that option is offered, the same signature, timestamp and audit requirements will apply.
NowDealSheet verifies the identity of sellers and buyers to a standard appropriate for an introduction platform. Verification is conducted with a combination of AI-assisted research and human administrator judgement.
Where public data sources are available — Companies House in the United Kingdom is one example — the Platform may consult them as part of verification. Where such sources are limited or unreliable, the Platform relies on AI-assisted research of publicly available information (company records, official websites, domain registration, public professional profiles) supplemented by human review.
Verification confirms identity and reasonable good standing only. It does not constitute an endorsement of the deal, its economics, or the counterparty's suitability for any particular buyer or seller. Independent due diligence remains the responsibility of each party.
NowDealSheet operates internationally. Listings may originate from, or be directed towards, jurisdictions in which our members are active. Users are responsible for ensuring compliance with the laws and regulations applicable in their own jurisdiction.
The Platform is operated by NowDealSheet and is governed by the laws of England & Wales. Any dispute concerning the operation of the Platform will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England & Wales.
Any dispute arising between introduced parties in relation to a transaction is a matter for those parties and their advisers, not for NowDealSheet.
