Buyer Services

 

Purchasing a property for your business’s use involves decision making on many fronts.  Location is often the most critical factor when considering a purchase, but there are many other important variables to asses in order to make the best real estate purchase decision. When you intend to purchase a commercial property for your business, you need to consider variables such as the optimum location and configuration of that space for your business purposes, the future investment value of the property, the aesthetic your business desires to present as well as other factors. Maverick Partners brokers leverage their extensive market knowledge to help you assess all facets of the purchase process, including:

 

  • Detailed demographic reporting.

  • Market and sub-market analysis.

  • Financial analysis, including “cost of occupancy” modeling

  • Contractor referral network, including general contractors, architects, lenders, environmental consultants, engineers, etc

  • Future expansion options

  • Contract negotiations

 

 

Investor Services:

Each commercial real estate investor has their own unique motivations for property acquisition, but one common denominator prevails…acquire solid properties with strong cash flow and capital appreciation potential.  To assist our clients in meeting their unique requirements, Maverick Partners brokers leverage years of market knowledge to maximize earning potential while mitigating risk. Maverick Partners will work with you to design a service program based upon your specific needs and objectives.  Our investment services include:

·       Detailed cash flow analysis, including cash-on-cash returns, IRR projections and discounted cash flow analysis.

·       Property identification, including canvassing for unlisted options based upon our network of property owners and managers.

·       Lease analysis.

·       1031 Tax Deferred Exchange analysis.

·       Risk evaluation.

·       Development and rehab analysis.

·       In the end, you will decide if the deal is right for you. We just try to make that decision fully informed and more profitable.

 

Landlord Services

Leasing is the beating heart of commercial real estate.  It creates property value, provides an owner with return on investment and provides an opportunity to apply debt financing to a property. Like most property owners and investors, your goal is to maximize your property’s income potential.  Maverick Partners recognizes that there is much more to leasing a property than simply finding a willing tenant.  Our objective is to scour the market to find the strongest tenants and win our clients the best terms.  We fully recognize that outstanding landlord representation is about understanding a specific property’s “value proposition,” the submarket the property is located within, the existing and future leasing activity and then applying a proactive marketing strategy to present the property to the market in the most efficient manner possible.

 

With hundreds of lease transactions under our belt, Maverick Partners has created a strategic backbone for maximizing a property’s exposure in the market and managing the leasing process.  We leverage technology including custom websites, email campaigns, data mining and search engine optimization in order to efficiently reach the market.

Upon identification of a qualified tenant, Maverick Partners works closely with our clients to review all aspects of the lease to determine its true return.  From analyzing construction costs required for tenant improvements to cash flow analysis and its impact on underlying value, our brokers are experts in providing maximum value.

 

 

Tenant Services

Perhaps more than any other facet of commercial real estate, a strong tenant leasing agent is of paramount importance when seeking the right space for your business to lease.  Our objective is to provide the highest quality, most efficient space possible for the best cost and strongest terms available. Leasing represents a long-term commitment and it is critical to balance the competing interests of landlords and tenants in order to arrive at the right combination of rental rate, tenant improvements (space customization), lease term length and other terms between owner and tenant.  Maverick Partners guides our clients through this process to minimize the stress and maximize benefit.

 

Our agents have significant experience with sourcing and negotiating space for our clients.  Of particular note is our proficiency with urban properties, where every property offers unique challenges and opportunities.  We fully understand the dynamics of the physical and cost-related obstacles in urban buildings, but also recognize and embrace the “cool factor” that downtown environments provide.

In order to assist our clients in making a fully informed leasing decision, we offer the following services:

 

·       Research the market to present all viable properties.

·       Compare lease structures: full service/ modified gross / triple net

·       Compare leasing proposals from competing property owners to determine the most advantageous mix of rental rate, landlord  concessions, and timing.

·       Review expansion and renewal options.

·       Review “pass-through” expenses: actual vs. landlord estimates

·       Strongly advocate for the strongest possible terms.

·       Analyze total cost of occupancy.
