Question 1

When should I start looking for commercial space in Austin?

Accepted Answer

Typically you will want to look for space 9 to 18 months before you need to occupy it. When factoring in time to find the right space, negotiate the contract, and then prepare the space for move-in, there is a lot to consider before you will be ready to open your doors. The best options may also be under construction and will take time to deliver. It is better to be too early than too late.

Question 2

How much does a commercial real estate broker cost in Austin?

Accepted Answer

Our fee is paid by the Landlord or Seller and is an expected cost for them. This means using us as tenant representation is only an advantage for you at no cost to you. Landlords like paying us because we bring quality tenants and help navigate the deal — it is a win-win for all parties.

Question 4

We do not require an exclusive contract. We do require a simple Representation Agreement that allows us to call on properties on your behalf when performing market reports. We only want to work with people who want to work with us — if at any point you choose to go a different direction, we will honor that.
