Our Services
TENANT and LANDLORD REPRESENTATION
We are equally skilled at representing either, and sometimes both, side(s) of a lease transaction. Each requires similar knowledge and experience, but different applications. As landlord representatives, we make use of our extensive client list to identify prospective tenants. In addition, we maintain excellent relationships with brokers from other companies and encourage cooperation. As tenant representatives, our market knowledge enables us to identify lease opportunities that are not always obvious or publicly known. Our honed negotiating skills are an asset in assisting our clients to attain favorable lease terms.
BUYER and SELLER REPRESENTATION
Our company has handled the purchase and sale of hundreds of properties. Our knowledge of financing, construction, zoning and other purchase contingencies assist in completing transactions that might otherwise not make it to closing.
FEASIBILITY STUDY DUE DILIGENCE
A critical aspect of a property purchase is the completion of “due diligence” items during a contract feasibility period. Because of our development experience and knowledge, we can guide and assist the property purchaser by overseeing closing items such as environmental assessment, design modifications, construction and repair estimates and permitting.
DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT
The Shapiro Company can provide “turnkey” development services to owners or prospective purchasers of properties that they would like to develop. We can assist our clients with site acquisition, environmental assessment management, financing, design, budgeting and construction.
