REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL

2. Provide examples of the form of Request for Proposal that you would propose to utilize with prospective landlords. Please see below for links to our Request for Proposal Templates that we would utilize for prospective landlords. We have included two separate templates for your review. One is meant for landlords of existing buildings, and the other is catered toward new construction buildings. There are a number of different points, specifically in relation to Base Building language, that are necessary to include when negotiating in a New Construction asset. Our RFP templates are extensive and ensure that we negotiate all major economic and business provisions prior to the landlord drafting a lease. A tenant’s leverage is always much stronger when negotiating during the letter of intent stage, which is why we push to finalize ALL points of the below RFPs before agreeing move to the lease negotiation stage. These RFPs demonstrate the level of detail our team applies in negotiating each and every key point to drive a below market deal for our clients.
