*QUASI - BIZ BROKER STATE

If a business brokerage commission is contingent on "the transfer of an interest in real estate", (this includes a lease transfer)  then the business broker must possess a real estate license to be paid.
"Business brokers must hold real estate licenses or utilize the services of a licensed real estate broker anytime the sale of a business involves the transfer of any interest in real property.  A business broker and any associates who do not hold real estate licenses may not negotiate a real property transaction and then secure a real estate broker to approve it.   Any person who for a valuable consideration negotiates the transfer of a leasehold or ownership interest in real property must hold a real estate license."  - Georgia RE Commission

A real estate license is required on business brokerage "where the payment of all or part of a commission or fee to the business broker or any of the business broker’s associates in the sale of a business is contingent upon the transfer of an interest in real estate."  https://gabb.org/the-theory-and-practice-of-business-brokerage-within-the-context-of-real-estate-license-law-rules/
