The Cost of Tenant Representation – Part I

Inexperienced Tenants often mistake the person showing them an office suite, the Landlord’s Agent/Broker, as someone who will take care of them in their lease negotiations.  They don’t and here’s why.

Why a Tenant Rep? A Tenant Rep is a highly trained specialist who safeguards lease exposure, manages expectations, analyses each property, and assures the negotiated lease terms are what market conditions dictate as fair.  The Tenant Rep keeps you informed of industry changes, trends and will assist with lease renewals.
