Tenant Consulting

With more than 20 years in property management backing Niche Retail Strategies, we have extensive experience in dealing with a variety of tenants, both established and those in a start-up mode. Niche Retail Strategies is a “Tenant Advocate” well positioned to provide expert help to tenants on a broad spectrum of circumstances and issues. We know how complicated leases, bad projections, inaccurate pro-forma’s, poor site selection, and lack of advertising dollars can ruin a business before it even gets off the ground. And we can give you the help you need to ensure you have the best possible chance to succeed.

Tenant advisory services are also a vital first step when considering a new location, expansion, lease renewal or signing that rent concession agreement.  Well, this is where it can make all the difference having an expert on your team. Let us create a proforma to show you how much your lease will cost you annually as well as how to minimize your exposure to landlord’s common area expense pools. Our Tenant Advisory services give you the solutions-focused expertise you need.

“I had the privileged opportunity to work with Wendy on a number of platforms.  As the anchor tenant in 2 Rodeo as well as the President of the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce, where she served on the Executive Committee, I found her to be a consummate professional and a highly respected leader within the Beverly Hills business community.  Her keen ability to operate from a strategic perspective, her understanding of complex concepts and her ability to generate innovative ideas and solutions made her a sought after expert within her field.  Wendy consistently kept abreast of market trends, opportunities and the competition which always served as an added value to her tenants and associates.”
