You are...

• starting a new retail business
• expanding an existing retail business
• unsure about where to locate your retail business
• downsizing or phasing out an existing retail business
• starting a franchise business

You need or want to...

• renegotiate a current or existing lease
• negotiate a new lease for a lease that is due to expire
• purchase a retail building to locate your business

You don't have time or don't know how to...

• find a location
• negotiate a lease agreement

You are concerned because...

• your strip center location has a high vacancy rate or high turnover among tenants
• your landlord or property management company does little or nothing to promote the businesses in your shopping center
• you are afraid of being taken advantage of
• you’ve been taken advantage of in the past
• you feel like your rent is too high
• you feel like your landlord is charging you too much for CAM’s (common area maintenance)
• you paid for the tenant improvements to your space
• you paid rent from day one of your lease commencement

“When we decided to start our business, we already had the perfect location picked out. But after numerous attempts to contact the leasing company listed on the property, no one got back to us, let alone agreed to meet with us.

We then contacted Scott Capen at Retail Tenant Source and within 24 hours, he had arranged for us to meet with the landlord directly! He then represented us in the lease negotiations and was able to secure exactly the lease terms we desired. Mr. Capen’s assistance was invaluable and we can honestly say that without him, our bike shop would not have become a reality!”
