Using all of the tools to your advantage can help your bottom line while giving you the space you need to succeed and grow.

  • Tenant's Attractiveness to the Landlord and the Building

Of course this is just a few items that can have a major impact on the office lease, but quantifying the effective rental rate can make a large difference when putting your pen to paper. By seeing the potential lease agreement from the side of the landlord, it is plain to see that the effective rental rate will be the net profit from the lease.

When comparing the effective rental rates, you will be able to see just what you should be paying for your office lease that will make it a win-win for both parties involved. The more that you can quantify in your negotiations the better. Knowing the bottom line for the Landlord will allow you to negotiate your Monroe Office Space that much simpler.
