Capital Markets

Leasing Advisory

A commercial lease is one of your largest long-term liabilities — or your asset's entire income. Either way, the terms deserve real negotiation.

Overview

For occupiers, we plan requirements, source and compare options on true total cost, and negotiate rents, incentives and flexibility with market evidence. For landlords, we advise on leasing strategy, tenant covenant assessment and lease structures that protect asset value.

Lease-versus-buy analysis and IFRS 16 implications are modelled alongside — because the accounting and tax treatment change the real economics.

Why it matters

Every deal grounded in verified market data — pay too much or sell too low and the market keeps the difference. Engagements are scoped by a senior adviser, priced as a fixed fee before work begins, and delivered by the same team that answers when you call.

FAQ

Common Questions

When should lease negotiation start?

For renewals, twelve months before expiry — options and leverage evaporate as the deadline approaches. For new requirements, as soon as headcount plans firm up.

Do you act for landlords and tenants simultaneously?

Never on the same transaction — single-interest representation is the point of the service.

How are your fees structured for leasing advisory?

Every engagement is a fixed fee agreed in writing before work begins — scoped by a senior adviser after a short, free review of your situation. No hourly billing, no surprises, and the quote itself is free.

Whose side of the transaction are you on?

Yours only. We take no brokerage spread and represent one party per transaction — so the advice, the model and the negotiation all pull in your direction.

How do you keep a transaction confidential?

NDAs before any information moves, anonymised teasers, staged data-room access and a controlled buyer and lender list — confidentiality is engineered into the process, not assumed.

Are your financial packs bank-ready?

Yes. Models, information memoranda and lender packs are built to the standard UAE banks and institutional investors expect — and reviewed by a senior adviser before anything leaves the building.
