The brief

Rather than wait for their lease expiry, RedZed moved early to improve the economics of its 1,287 sqm Melbourne CBD office.

Tenant CS benchmarked the market, identified credible alternatives for leverage and ran a mid-term renewal strategy designed to capture current incentives, reduce future liabilities and secure longer-term certainty without disrupting the business.

Results

1

Above-market incentive secured

Competitive tension helped secure an above-market incentive, improving upfront value and giving RedZed more room to manage relocation or workplace costs.

2

Immediate savings brought forward

Rent abatement and a landlord capital contribution created value now, rather than waiting until the next lease event.

3

Make good and bank guarantee exposure reduced

Lower future liabilities and security requirements improved the overall efficiency of the lease.

4

Five-year term secured on stronger settings

Favourable fixed annual increases gave RedZed greater cost certainty while retaining a building that already suited the business.
