Tenant Representation

Regardless of a company’s position, we provide value added real estate services that meet our tenant’s changing needs. Whether your company is facing a near term lease expiration, is rapidly growing and needs to expand its facilities or is downsizing and needs to dispose of surplus space, our real estate professionals can develop unique, creative strategies that go beyond typical brokerage services.

Newmark Zimmer analyzes your company’s current space usage and its capacity to meet your future requirements. As part of the evaluation process necessary to determine whether a renewal or relocation best suits your company’s needs, we abstract your lease and benchmark your remaining obligation against prevailing market conditions, both at the submarket and building level.

Regardless of the ultimate decision to stay or move, Newmark Zimmer enhances your negotiating leverage by identifying alternative location options. To achieve this, we develop valuation matrices establishing your financial constraints, operational requirements and qualitative considerations. A short list of alternatives and corresponding negotiating strategies is created based upon our knowledge of the market, as well as the financial position and reputation of each building’s landlord. Once the desired location is identified and the most favorable lease terms are negotiated, Newmark Zimmer’s professionals stay closely involved to coordinate the ancillary activities associated with a renewal or relocation.

For those companies with a remaining lease obligation on space that is no longer necessary or financially prudent, Newmark Zimmer creates unique solutions to improve their situation. We develop strategies based on market conditions and an exhaustive analysis of the landlord’s financial position on the property, including, but limited to, the underlying mortgage, tax burden, operating expenses and anticipated vacancies. We advocate your position in negotiating the restructure of an unfavorable lease or, if necessary, assist in the disposition of excess space through a sublease, assignment or early termination.

Landlord Representatives

As landlord representatives, we operate with a clear goal in mind: maximize your property’s potential. We fully understand the value of capital improvements, financial ownership structures, the impact of debt service obligations and exit strategy planning.

Our professionals understand the complex requirements of corporate, institutional and entrepreneurial clients from their perspective, and we advise them at every stage of the investment life cycle, from underwriting to property acquisitions to dispositions. We can reposition an underperforming asset or portfolio of assets through competitive analysis, pro-active leasing strategies and tenant retention programs. In addition, the firm provides comprehensive services that range from strategic planning to property and asset management.

Newmark Zimmer develops comprehensive, individualized marketing and leasing strategies, based on a property’s condition and location, to achieve its highest potential positioning in alignment with ownership’s investment objectives. Implementation of a leasing strategy includes direct solicitation of potential tenants and their brokers, extensive reporting of prospect activity to ownership, optimum pricing recommendations and expedited RFP responses and negotiations.

We recruit, hire and retain the very best people. Our professionals work as a team with our staff of in-house experts, including top leasing agents, highly educated financial analysts and senior property managers to advise on building operations and systems.

With access to such valuable market research, our advisors track tenant migration and property market trends, while establishing the most current and comprehensive knowledge of competitive space. A successful leasing campaign ensures no missed opportunities and informed decision making through in-depth market intelligence.
