Dear Mr. Sunderland,

I had the pleasure of working with your firm several years ago in the pursuit of suitable professional office space. The agent and your company assisted me, was very patient and most importantly help me ask the correct and appropriate questions while navigating the stressful and confusing world of finding commercial space. All of my anxieties were addressed and it was a pleasure working with Optimal Spaces, Inc. We were able to find our current location at 200 West 5ih Street relatively quickly and we have been happy every since.

Sincerely,

Dominick Servedio, AuD

To whom it may concern:

I have had the pleasure of leasing office space with Stephen Sunderland of Optimal Spaces Inc. in the last two years. Steve was critical in obtaining office space for our company in a very competitive market yet at a very reasonable price. His abilities in dealing with the building owner continued even after our signing of the lease, during which time he advocated for our company. I never doubted his level of integrity. He is truly an honest broker in a field not always known for his altruism. I recommend Steve without reservation. Please feel free to call me should you need further information.

Sincerely,

Stuart H. Ditchek, M.D.

Why Optimal Spaces –
Tenant Broker

  • No fee for clients renting space.
  • We work for YOU, not the landlord.
  • Save 15–20% on your business costs.
  • Save 100–200 hours of research.
  • Access to all available spaces.
  • Specialized real estate expertise.

Alone or with other broker

  • Miss deals and hard-to-find spaces.
  • Potential conflict of interest (often represent landlords).
  • Only 10% of available spaces are online.
  • Lack of specialized expertise.
  • May not get the best terms or uncover hidden costs.
Why Use a Tenant Broker: Your Advocate in Commercial Real Estate
1. The Crucial Distinction: Whose Side Are They On?
Landlord Rep (Listing Agent) — Fiduciary Duty: Landlord. Highest rent, best terms for landlord.
Tenant Rep (Tenant Broker) — Fiduciary Duty: Tenant Only. Lowest rent, best terms for tenant. Levels the playing field.
2. It Almost Always Costs You Nothing
3. Access to “Hidden” Inventory
4. Negotiating Beyond Base Rent
Landlord pays the broker fee — free expert representation for the tenant.
Access to hidden inventory: off-market listings, subleases, and future availabilities via broker databases and networks.
Negotiating beyond base rent: free rent, TI allowance, OPEX caps, and lease flexibility for renewal or expansion.
5. Time Savings & Process Management
6. Mitigating Risk (the “Gotchas”)
Tenant broker handles searching, scheduling, and RFPs — your outsourced real estate department with curated options and timeline management.
Mitigating risk: spotting pitfalls in LOI and lease such as restoration clauses and holdover penalties.
