The real cost of your lease
is hiding in the clauses.
Independent tenant advisory for commercial occupiers across Australia. Every engagement is led directly by our director, drawing on a network built over nearly two decades — with fees typically paid by the landlord and fully disclosed up front.
Why the number moves.
Rent is one line of many.
Escalation, outgoings recovery, make-good and holding-over carry more money over a term than the headline rent. They are negotiable and rarely negotiated.
We only act for you.
No landlord mandates, no leasing portfolio to fill. Every recommendation is made solely in your interest, including when it is to stay put.
Forty lease points, not four.
Incentives, make-good, options, market reviews and exit rights. Every commercial lever gets negotiated, not just the headline rent.
Six ways we work with occupiers.
Lease Review
Every lease abstracted to identify risks, onerous clauses, obligations and opportunities before any strategy is developed.
Lease Review →Lease Strategy
The right questions asked up front to understand your parameters, then a solution built for your situation rather than a template.
New Site Sourcing
A database of landlords and agents built over seventeen years, giving access to on-market, off-market and sublease opportunities across every sector.
Lease Negotiation
Forty lease points negotiated — rent, incentives, term, flexibility and more — backed by market data that creates leverage.
How we negotiate →Lease Renewal
Market data used to create leverage against the incumbent landlord. Where possible we avoid exercising the option and negotiate full market terms.
Make Good & Exit
Make good is a negotiation, not a formality. Obligations clarified up front; surrender, sublease and assignment options run where an exit is the right answer.
The numbers behind the work.
"Market knowledge and negotiation strategy secured terms we didn't think were achievable, on a consolidation with a lot of moving parts."
What people ask before engaging.
Typically 25–500 staff, 500m² and up, or portfolios of five or more leases. Below that the work still applies but the economics rarely stack up.
Leasing agents represent landlords and are paid by them, usually on commission tied to lease value. We represent occupiers only — where a landlord pays our fee, it is fully disclosed to you in writing before the work starts, so our advice stays independent and accountable to you.
That happens and it is often the right answer. The fee is paid for the work, not the outcome.
The Lease Clause Checklist
A one-page checklist of the clauses worth scrutinising before you renew or sign — the questions your landlord hopes you don’t ask. Name and email, nothing else.
Twenty minutes with Jeremy. Direct. No script.
A straight read on your lease situation, and straight answers on fees — most engagements are paid by the landlord, and any fee we earn is fully disclosed to you before anything starts.
