Selecting Tenants

Careful marketing and tenant selection provides different types of safety. Your building and your reputation can be damaged by bad tenants.

We work hard to understand who would fit your property before promoting it. Then we choose from the pool of applicants and ideal tenants.

More recent addition of our modern client/tenant portal system provides great piece-of-mind. Tenants are able to submit their payments automatically. Those are then accounted for professionally. And finally, you as a building owner, can see the exact status of each building, tenant and much more.

Expertise & Experience

The time we spend walking through a potential new client’s building is very important. We need to know the inside, outside and neighborhood. Then we can give you, the client, advice on the right strategy for finding great tenants, dealing with current tenants, managing the property, organizing contractors and  helping plan out the move-in and move-out so everyone is happy.

Marketing

Local media is great for part of the promotion of your leasable commercial property. Conversations with business leaders are part of the marketing mix. Describing the property and telling the right stories to potential tenants helps then envision moving in and prospering.

Marketing is not simple. It requires real local connections and knowledge.

Maintenance On A Budget

Every investment needs to be well managed to maintain the value. Your leasable building should have tenants who are satisfied with parking; washroom upkeep; windows and carpets; utilities like power, gas and water; and safety.

Form the roofline to the foundation, there are a many systems to be considered.

Carefully scheduling of maintenance with reliable contractors takes consideration. Because each building needs individual care, we put together the maintenance plan with real thought. Then we schedule so the professional contractors time is optimized over a number of buildings.

Disbursements

The importance of your bank statement is never forgotten. Speed of disbursements, different types of accounts that are available, and transparent processes will ensure that you, the building owner, are fully aware of every penny.

Financials

Building utility expenses, commercial contractor’s fees, supplies, banking charges, property management fees, security costs: there is a long list of financial details.

By organizing these, paying the essentials, showing your income growth with new tenants and planning future payments, we work hard using our customized financial systems. Your accountant will appreciate the details we provide.

Legal Compliance

Knowing local bylaws, state requirements, federal statutes and other regulations comes from long experience in commercial property management. In some areas, there are important procedures to have in place so that a business district maintains its standards.

It is not easy to learn and manage the legalities of commercial property ownership. Bradley Scott Real Estate gives each of our clients full coverage to keep their building secure: legally and in their reputation.

Commercial Tenant Satisfaction
