Even after you sign that contract for Tucson office space for rent, a tenant rep remains your trusted adviser.

Here at Commercial Real Estate Group of Tucson, I live by the idea that I’m your trusted adviser “from search to signing and beyond.”

Tenant representatives are there for their lease and corporate user clients long after a Tucson property lease contract has been signed.

Like other tenant reps, I believe that the client relationship lasts all the way through the lifetime of the business, not just during an occasional Tucson commercial real estate transaction.

As a business owner, you may not think you need a commercial real estate broker once you’ve secured your lease. But here are some of the ways tenant reps make it easier for you to run your business.

Move-in Arrangements

Just as tenant reps can draw-up, issue and evaluate requests for proposals for Tucson office space for rent, we can take care of RFPs for build-out and move-in activities, including for architectural and contractor services.

A tenant rep stays in contact with you during the build-out phase to make sure you get what the lease contract calls for. We can help you review change orders, resolve fee disputes and handle ownership issues.

We also can help you coordinate your move to your new Tucson office space. For instance, I have extensive checklists and several articles that cover all the bases of a complex business move.

Lease Monitor

You have lots of things to take care of for your business. It’s hard to remember, much less understand, the nuances of your lease agreement.

Tenant reps serve as your experienced set of eyes and ears who can monitor the commitments made by the landlord and by you. We can verify the details of the lease transaction. Plus, we help you settle lease disputes with your landlord as they come up, not just during contract negotiations.

At the beginning of every year, you receive from your landlord a reconciliation statement of operating expenses and taxes.  This covers your upcoming expenses for your Tucson office space for rent.

We tenant reps can examine these statements for you. If something seems wrong, we can help you decide if requesting an audit will help you save on these expenses.

We also can examine lease management financial reports for you to find savings on your Tucson office space for rent.

Strategic Planning

As your business changes over the years, you’ll face commercial real estate needs as part of your response.

When do you need to secure more Tucson office space for rent to handle growth? Will a changing market force you to consolidate locations or reduce workforce? Can you make your current space work better for changing functions or projects?

Your tenant rep partner knows how your business is changing and so can easily talk with you on these and many other commercial property issues. We can make recommendations, then act on your behalf to find or adjust your Tucson office space for rent.

We can take a look at the market for surplus property you may have and suggest the best strategy for its disposal.

And, of course, we are there when you are ready to renew or secure a new lease. Because we’ve been your trusted adviser, we’re ready to act on your behalf as quickly as you need us.

Start developing that tenant rep relationship now. It will pay you dividends for many years.
