Leasing Process

Having the right Tenant Representation throughout the leasing process will allow you to focus on your core business, while having the wrong Tenant Representation will take you away from what you do best. Here is our approach to make sure you have the right experience during your leasing process:


Phase I - Discovery of Requirements
  • Interview Key Personnel
  • Examine Current Lease / Existing Floor Plan
  • Create a Space Program
  • Determine a Target Geographical Location
  • Determine Budget

Phase II - Identify / Qualify Alternatives
  • Search the Market for Potential Locations
  • Identify the Top Locations
  • Tour Top Locations

Phase III - Undertake In-Depth R&D
  • Determine Short List of Properties
  • Engage Architect to Develop a Space Plan
  • Develop a Request for Proposal (RFP) to send to Short List
  • Receive Proposals from Landlords and Analyze Them
  • Begin Estimating the Cost of the Improvements to the Space

Phase IV - Negotiate Terms & Conditions
  • Develop a Letter of Intent (LOI) for Top Choice
  • Agree to Terms
  • Agree on Space Plan
  • Negotiate Lease Terms with Attorney
  • Determine Construction Schedule

Phase V - Execute Transaction
  • Sign Lease Documents
  • Monitor the Construction Process
  • Final Walk Through
  • Move In

Phase VI - Post Lease Support
  • Create a Lease Abstract
  • Provide Operating Expense Audits
  • Help with Expansion Office Space, or to Dispose of Office Space during Lease Term
  • Renewal Negotiations
The leasing process from start to finish can take anywhere from 60 days to 1 year or longer. So, make sure you have the right plan.
