Tenant Representation Services

Any agent can show you properties and tour spaces, but here's how The Stiles Group goes above and beyond to help you:

1. Needs Analysis and Space Planning

Assessing Tenant Requirements: We'll begin by conducting a thorough analysis of your space needs. This includes evaluating your business type, employee count, budget, growth projections, preferred location, and specific amenities or features required for the space.

Space Planning and Layout: We'll help you work with architects or designers to ensure that the space layout will align with your operations, whether it’s for office, retail, or industrial purposes.

Future Growth Considerations: We'll help you consider future growth and scalability, ensuring that the space can accommodate expansion or operational changes.

2. Market Research and Site Selection

Market Analysis: Conduct research on the North Texas real estate market, identifying available properties that meet your criteria. As licensed brokers we have advanced knowledge of the local market, including properties that may not be widely advertised.

Property Tours: Organize and conduct property tours to help you evaluate potential spaces based on location, size, amenities, and overall fit for your needs.

Comparative Market Analysis (CMA): Provide data-driven insights into market trends, rental rates, vacancy rates, and comparable leases, allowing you to make an informed decision.

3. Lease Negotiation

Lease Terms and Conditions: We will help you negotiate the terms of the lease to help you get your best possible deal. This can include rental rates, lease duration, renewal options, tenant improvement allowances, and operating expenses (e.g., CAM charges, property taxes).

Incentives and Concessions: We can negotiate incentives, such as rent abatements (free rent), tenant improvement allowances (money for customizing the space), or other concessions that can reduce your cost of occupancy.

Flexibility Clauses: We aim to secure favorable clauses, such as options to renew, options to expand or contract, and early termination clauses, which provide flexibility in case your needs change.

4. Lease Review and Guidance

Lease Documentation Review: While we are not attorneys, we can help walk you through complex lease documents, highlighting critical terms and provisions. If you like we can communicate with your legal team to ensure they have all the information they need to help you determine if the lease is fair and legally sound.

Risk Mitigation: Help identify and mitigate potential risks in the lease, such as unreasonable responsibilities or excessive penalties.

5. Financial Analysis and Budgeting

Cost Estimation: We can assist you in budgeting for the total cost of occupancy, which includes not only rent but also operating expenses, utilities, taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs.

Return on Investment (ROI): We can assist you in analyzing how different lease options impact your overall budget and the financial health of your business, helping ensure that the rent aligns with your financial capacity.

6. Move-In Support and Transition Assistance

Lease Execution and Coordination: Coordinate the finalization of the lease and assist with the logistics of moving into the new space.

Facility and Vendor Coordination: If you'd like we can help you establish relationships with vendors for services like internet, phone lines, utilities, and security.

Insurance: We have established relationships with a variety of insurance brokers who can help you determine what coverage is right for you.

7. Ongoing Support

Lease Renewals: When the lease term approaches expiration, we'll assist you with lease renewal negotiations if you choose to stay in the same space.

Expansion or Relocation: If you need to expand or move, we can assist with finding additional space or help negotiate a move to a new property.

Dispute Resolution: In cases of disputes with the landlord or property management (such as over maintenance issues or lease terms), we can offer referrals to attorneys or other resources that can help mediate and resolve conflicts.
