This course is for the residential real estate professional interested in commercial real estate. Learn the basics and beyond, from working with landlords and property managers to leasing office and retail space. We will cover basic vocabulary, mathematics, and principles of how to communicate most effectively with landlords and property managers. We’ll discuss the build-out process and what truly are the real estate professionals’ responsibilities in the commercial leasing process.
The course is designed to remove the mystery of the build-out process and to illustrate why staying out of this part of the move-in process is crucial. Students will gain a tactical advantage in negotiations by understanding how to best utilize certain clauses of the lease. Additional discussion topics include insurance needs and a few tricks of the trade that landlords and property managers don’t like to share.
