Tenant Representation

For office, industrial and retail tenants, Grubb & Ellis|Memphis’ 20-year history of landlord and tenant representation will provide your firm an experienced and beneficial ally.

Having learned the real estate business on the “landlord's side,” our firm is particularly adept at negotiating on behalf of tenants, as we understand how landlords think. This helps our clients (tenant representation) accomplish a “win/win” relationship with their landlords as we address the important issues for both parties to achieve the objectives of the tenant while being fair to the landlord. As company policy, in order to avoid conflicts of interest, we do not represent tenants located in Grubb & Ellis|Memphis-represented buildings, unless approved in advance by the landlord.

Our Tenant Representation services are valuable because we know the market (rents, tenant improvements, expenses, common area charges, concessions, etc.), we understand leases and the provisions which are fair and equitable, and we know what landlords will and will not accept in negotiations. We will be delighted to meet with you to explain our eight-step Tenant Representation Process for identifying “for lease” and/or “for sale” opportunities and for negotiating and delivering the most satisfying lease possible for your firm.

Please read our latest Grubb & Ellis Quarterly Report to ensure you are up-to-date on the status of the Memphis market, and call us if you have any questions. We're more than happy to provide “coaching” to ensure that you are on the right track in understanding the market and your lease. In all lease transactions, the commission is paid for by the landlord. In some cases the rent is increased to pay for the tenant’s representation fee, in others it is not.

Our initial consultation meeting is always complimentary and free of charge, so if we can advise you on this all-important business decision, please contact us today.
