FAQ
A tenant representative is a commercial real estate expert who works exclusively for the tenant / occupier. Contrary to standard real estate brokers who represent both landlords and tenants, and thus have an inherent conflict of interest. It is important for tenants to use their own adviser who will work exclusively for them, thus ensuring the best possible deal with terms fitting their requirements at the lowest rate.
Yes. We do not own or commercialize any building portfolio’s and never work for real estate suppliers. This allows us to objectively advise you in your real estate strategy and building selection. Therefore, we are not conflicted at all in advising you nor in negotiation activities.
No. Tenant representation is much larger than negotiating lease costs. It all starts with an in-depth needs analysis and a clear definition of an appropriate real estate strategy, taking into account ways of working, mobility, ESG, technical features, etc. Negotiating lease costs from an independent and conflict-free position is just a final step in the process of generating maximum savings.
