Notes	The Des Moines Public School District is seeking proposals from qualified firms or brokers specializing in commercial real estate sales.  The intent of this RFP is for the successful firm/broker to enter into a professional services contract with the District. Knowledge of the local market and experience in the purchase and sale of properties in the Des Moines Iowa area is essential for this project.  Please review the attachment, attribute, and response attachment tabs for information regarding scope of work and proposal expectations. Addendum: The recommendation to rebid this RFP is based on two important requirements that were not included in the original solicitation: (Community benefit considerations and broker performance expectations). Because District-owned property serves the public, the RFP should require the broker to consider equitable outcomes by engaging mission-aligned buyers, including nonprofits, affordable housing developers, community land trusts, minority-owned businesses, and governmental entities. The broker should also summarize outreach efforts and advise the District on disposition strategies that support community goals where appropriate. The revised RFP should also establish clear service expectations, including timely responses to District inquiries, quarterly performance updates, participation in annual reviews when requested, and maintenance of professional licensure in good standing. Re-bidding will allow the District to include these requirements, improve accountability, and ensure the selected broker is aligned with District priorities and community interests.
