COMMERCIAL LEASES in Irving, Texas If you are looking for commerical office, retail, restaurant, or warehouse space in Irving, Texas you've come to the right place. We always suggest expert tenant representation during your search and throughout the lease process. Lots of business like to go at it alone...checking out spaces and calling landlords directly. This can be one of the most costly mistakes a new or existing business can make. Call us first at 214-675-6992 or drop Bruce a line at rb@teamlynn.com before you even begin to look at potential locations.
Here are the top ten reasons you should call us first before looking or calling landlords:
1. Keller Williams has experts in finding and negotiating tenant leases. You would likely never attempt to file your own corporate taxes or write your own legal contracts. Why would you attempt to enter a real estate contract and negotiate what is likely one of your largest monthly expenses without an expert in your corner?
2. Can you count on the landlord to show you the most costly clauses in the lease agreement? Do you know what they are? Can you write the lease to include performance standards of the landlord? Often if you go directly to the landlord, their "standard" lease is severely biased in favor of the landlord. That's where we come in....we work for you and will do our best to negotiate a lease that serves your interests and not always those of the landlord. A good example of this is the calculation of space. Landlord produced leases can confuse Usable vs Rentable space and size calculations should be checked.
3. We have access to additional space databases than what you see listed here. We might also know of non-listed property that is getting ready to come on the market that is not yet advertised.
4. If you call us first, we may be able to assist you without charge to you (ie the landlord pays us to represent your interest.) However this may become void if you contacted the landlord directly or before allowing us to introduce you to the space/lease.
5. Do you know there can be as many as a dozen or more non-rent costs associated with a commerical lease which can be charged back to the tenant? There is way more to commerical leases than just RENT and location. Would you like to have the right to audit the expenses charged back to you? Would you like the right to limit mark-ups and expenses? Should you share common meters or expenses with other tenants that may have significant use differences than your business? Should you be required to pay promotional expenses or media fees?
6. We can save you money and capital investment. What are the current standards for FREE rent or FINISH out? Are there spaces available that already have the finish out you need and even the leftover FFE from a previous tenant?
7. Leverage your time by leaving the real estate details to us. Spend time on the parts of your business where you excel. Don't waste your time and gas driving, and driving and driving to check out potential spaces. Let us do the work and present you with the alternatives.
8. We can help limit your risk. Do you need a clause limiting uses of other space in the building, perhaps competiting business or objectional business? Is your success based on being in the same location as a complimentary business? What happens if they move or go out of business?
9. What is the optimal lease term for your business and what is the optimal termination date of the lease? If you have a seasonal business or significant variations in use, you may not want the lease to end on the anniversary date of signing. Think CPA....most probably would not want their lease to end with a potential move in the third of the year.
10. Does building access and operating hours matter to you? Minimum or Maximum operating hours can be restrictive and operating outside the minimums or maximums could violate the lease or cost you additional fees for hot water, security, lighting, and other expenses.
We will walk you through these and many other commercial leases vital to your success. We look forward to serving you.
