Position and lease your commercial property

A commercial vacancy is both a physical space and an ownership decision. Asking terms, condition, timing, target users, improvements, marketing, and tenant selection need to support the owner's objectives and the realities of the property.

MacVaugh advises owners on positioning, pricing, marketing, tenant selection, negotiations, and lease execution for commercial properties and available spaces.

Pasadena is our back yard. We represent landlords and sellers across the greater Los Angeles area, and tenants and buyers—depending on the size of the requirement—across Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino and Ventura counties.

Begin with the property and the objective

An initial review should establish:

  • Property and available-space facts
  • Present condition and delivery options
  • Current or expected availability date
  • Existing asking terms and expense structure
  • Parking, access, visibility, loading, and infrastructure
  • Known use or permitting constraints
  • Ownership's timing, income, improvement, and tenant-mix objectives
  • Existing marketing and inquiry history

The strategy should make clear which facts are verified, which terms are proposed, and what questions a prospective tenant must investigate.

Positioning and asking terms

Positioning a space involves more than selecting a rent number. The lease structure, improvement approach, delivery condition, term, escalation, parking, and other business points shape who can use the space and how prospects compare it with alternatives.

Property marketing

Marketing may include an approved property page, photographs, floor plans, a brochure, email campaigns, direct outreach, appropriate portal distribution, and communication with prospective tenants and brokers.

MacVaugh.com should be the durable public source for approved current listing information. Third-party portals can extend distribution, but they should not be the only place a prospect can understand the offer.

Inquiry, tenant selection, and negotiation

The owner and broker should agree on how inquiries are handled, which information is required from a prospect, and how the owner will evaluate proposed use, business terms, financial information, and other relevant qualifications.

MacVaugh can support negotiations and lease execution under the applicable representation agreement. The owner and tenant should obtain appropriate legal and other professional advice.
