Lease renewal

Renewing your lease should be a strategic decision, not an automatic one. We help tenants treat commercial lease renewals as a chance to benchmark the market, create leverage and negotiate stronger terms that reduce occupancy costs, improve flexibility and support the next stage of business.

Our lease renewal process

Our process combines planning, market intelligence and commercial negotiation to strengthen your position before discussions with your landlord even begin.

1
Review your current lease position
We review your existing lease, workplace needs, budget and business priorities to understand what a stronger outcome should look like.
2
Test the market
Even when renewal is the preferred outcome, we take your requirement to market to identify and assess suitable office or industrial alternatives as a way to benchmark your landlord's offer and assess whether staying put or moving gives you the stronger commercial position.
3
Create competitive tension
We negotiate with your current landlord and shortlisted alternatives in parallel, giving you leverage, choice and a clearer basis for decision-making.
4
Secure the best outcome
Once the preferred route has been decided, we help finalise terms, manage documentation and support the process through to renewal or relocation. Working alongside your legal and project teams, we ensure a smooth transition through to handover and occupation.

Should you exercise your option to renew?

Not if you can help it.

Many tenants assume exercising an option is the safest choice. In reality, it can reduce your negotiating leverage if you haven't tested the market first. Options are rigid, making you lose negotiation power and potentially excluding you from any incentives a new tenant would be offered.
