The answer

There is no harm in guiding others to permissible commercial projects and their feasibility studies, and there is no harm in taking a fee for that. This is considered a permissible broker's or guide's fee. Sheikh Ibn Baz was asked about the ruling on searching for a location for a tenant in exchange for a fee, and he answered that it is permissible if done with honesty and truthfulness, without treachery or deception. One must be wary of deceptive methods via the internet.
