Brokerage for a Percentage Fee

Question
If the landowner agrees with the land dealer to sell his land in exchange for a fee that is a certain percentage of the land's price, is this percentage permissible?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: The work of brokers is permissible as long as there is no betrayal or deception, especially if the percentage and fee are clear to him, so there remains no ambiguity or dispute. And God knows best.
