Tenants With Representation Negotiate Better Lease Terms
A study published in November of 2014 by The Center for Real Estate Urban Analysis at The George Washington University looked at conflicts of interest in commercial real estate leasing transactions and how the tenant can easily come out the loser in office leasing transactions if they are not represented by a tenant agent that has their back.

We apply our collective experience, network, years of experience, and a keen understanding of the Chicago office market to help each of our clients maximize the strategic implications that a lease or purchase has on your bottom line. Even though we are working for the tenant or prospective buyer, our fees are paid entirely by the landlord or property owner after we have successfully completed the transaction. Therefore, there is no reason to waste your valuable time searching the internet for out-of-date information, calling random landlord agents, or driving around fruitlessly calling on buildings that don’t have the right space to fit your needs. We know the market and know which buildings and ownership groups to bring you to based on your individual and unique needs and goals. Don’t give the landlord the upper hand in your next lease negotiation. Have an expert by your side.

Your Office Is Your Calling Card
We understand that your office space becomes an extension of your culture, it is your calling card and in many ways it is paramount to how your customers, employees and competitors view your business. Its a place that you can leverage to recruit your ideal work force and keep them happy. Today’s tenants not only want great business terms, but the amenities and neighborhoods that will help their companies thrive and succeed. Our experts help you identify and maximize those opportunities.
We Put You First, Not the Landlord
Real estate occupancy costs are second only to salaries when it comes to running most businesses. Our strategy of first understanding your needs and then finding leverage in the marketplace has saved our clients millions of dollars. Unlike the landlord’s leasing agent, who is working to get the landlord the best deal, we represent the tenant’s side of the transaction and have a fiduciary responsibility to put our client’s interests first, avoiding all conflicts of interest while maintaining focus on our client’s objectives.
