Frequently Asked Questions
How are your services free for tenants?
It is standard LI practice for landlords to pay our commission because it aligns with securing or retaining qualified tenants. Securing a quality tenant often results in a long-term relationship whereby the commission is a relatively small cost compared to the future revenue stream for many years. This arrangement allows you to benefit from our professional services at no cost.
Why shouldn't I handle lease negotiations on my own?
While you can negotiate independently, tenants often miss out on significant savings and favorable terms. We have the market expertise and negotiation skills to secure terms and conditions that are typically unattainable without professional representation. For example, tenants may leave as much as $5 per SF on the table.
How do you create competition among landlords?
We conduct a comprehensive market survey to identify alternative office spaces that meet your needs. Presenting these options to your current landlord signals that you have viable alternatives, prompting them to offer more competitive terms to retain your tenancy.

We assist a wide range of businesses, primarily those in the professional sectors such as legal, insurance, accounting, marketing, technology, financial services, and related fields.
