Your lease expiry and the negotiations to renew are possibly the most stressful as well as most vital to your success. We take the stress out of these major lease events and position you to leverage the best outcomes leaving you free to do what you do best-retailing.

Time can be your friend or your enemy when it comes to lease options. Miss a deadline and you could be paying too much rent or worse still lose your business outright. We will leverage the time lines to get the best possible result whilst securing your business future

When selling your business, the last to know should be the Landlord, setting up your lease [your most valuable asset] ready to sell before listing will deliver not only a better sale price but a smooth assignment. We will work with you to value add your business before the sale and facilitate the lease assignment and a smooth settlement.

Knowing how the real estate your leasing performs for your business rather than you “working for the Landlord” will create opportunities to add value to your business. It is time for new thinking about your lease as it should be treated like any other asset. You will be surprised by the outcomes!

Your lease is like a marriage except it already has the divorce packaged in. By leveraging the timeline and inbuild events throughout the lease [critical path] we can support your business through these events and maximise your outcomes. If not, these lease events have the potential to erode value and profits.

Whether you are outgrowing your current shop or seeking to open more outlets, we can take the pain out of the research, site sourcing and the negotiations. Our partnership with RealRetail provides you with the greatest scope of opportunities to locate your next shop and Lease1 we will sort out the commercial terms.

Applying our decades of specific retail property knowledge, establishing KPIs and critical path management, we can provide you with the planning and insight to value add your lease portfolio. Majority get it wrong and start at the wrong end when managing a lease portfolio. Whether you have one site or a hundred sites, we can deliver results leaving you free to run your business.

Like every marriage, there will be ups and downs. The same with relationhips between retailers and landlords, we have a reputation of taking the emotion out of these issues and getting resolutions while not trashing the future relationships of the parties. After all, you do need each other – but if the “Big Stick” is needed call us!

For decades we have supported retailers in all facets of retail shop leases including education, through webinars, workshops, training sessions and conference key notes, and can tailor these resources specifically for your association, brand or franchise. In 2018, keep an eye out for our Retail Lease Road Shows.
