Tenant FAQs

Do I have to pay for tenant representation?

In most cases, no — the landlord pays our fee as part of the lease commission.

How early should I start looking?

Ideally, 6–12 months before your current lease ends. The best deals require lead time.

What types of properties do you help with?

Office, retail, industrial, flex — from small spaces to multi-site expansions.

Do tenant brokers only work for tenants?

In many cases, yes — but there are also situations where we work with both sides. When that happens, we disclose it fully and remain committed to a transparent, fair process.

Can’t I just call the landlord’s broker?

You can — but their job is to get the best deal for the landlord. Ours is to protect you.
