Tenant Representation Our integrated resources have helped tenants meet their objectives in markets and locations throughout Western Washington and the West Coast. We analyze each tenant's business objectives and match them with the optimal real estate solution. Services for expansions, relocations, consolidations, subleases, acquisitions, and dispositions include strategic planning, demographics, site consultation, comparative financial analysis, lease negotiation, construction, and post-occupancy advice.   After we've had a chance to evaluate each of our client's needs, we'll generally prepare an assortment of tools for them to properly analyze each potential market and location. These tools might include:     Market Overview A summary of the local, regional, or national markets including detailed site maps, demographics, inventory, gap analysis, trends, competition, and more.   Site Analysis A full package is completed on each particular site including detailed aerials with drive times, competition maps, trade areas, traffic counts, and custom demographic studies.   Financial Analysis Since there is far more to site selection than the address and asking rent, our team will prepare a full financial analysis on each location showing you the true cost to be a tenant in each property. This analysis covers specific costs associated with a site including build out, operating costs, parking, utility and zoning issues, signage, and more.   The Difference We don't stop working for our clients when the best location is discovered. Providing referrals for attorneys, architects, engineers, and other service professionals combined with an extensive knowledge of and experience with lease negotiations sets us apart from the competition. We like to think of ourselves as partners in your business and take pride in selecting locations that give our clients the best chance at success in whatever market they're in. Landlord Representation Fairhaven Commercial specializes in a custom approach to marketing and leasing our client’s properties. We market availabilities on more sites and in more places than any other brokerage firm. If applicable, your property will be listed and maintained on the following websites with a detailed flyer created by a commercial real estate marketing professional:     A flash website will also be created for your property allowing for easy access to vital information and one more avenue for potential tenants to discover the advantages of your property. Additionally, your property will benefit from target marketing to ideal tenants at many regional, national, and international real estate conferences annually that Fairhaven Commercial participates in.  The Extra Step Rate, term, and tenant credit are some of the important factors in lease negotiations and tenant selection, but so are the intangible factors each tenant brings to your property. Tenant mix is vital to the occupancy and cash flow of a property. We understand how to market your vacancies or upcoming projects in order to maximize the cash flow of the property while ensuring tenants are able to thrive through strategic co-tenancy. With a combination of market analysis, tenant relationships, and data derived from sources such as the Site To Do Business (www.stdbonline.com), Retail Planet (www.theretailplanet.com), and Retail Lease Trac (www.rltrac.com), we can tell you exactly who the best fit for your vacancy will be. Isn’t that better than taping a sign in the window and crossing your fingers?   Buyer Representation & Acquisition Services We analyze each buyer's financial objectives and match them with the optimal real estate solution.
