C2 Media Testimonial

C2 Media testimonial To Whom It May Concern: I would like to highly commend Robert King for his professional assistance in helping me locate a new corporate office. Locating the right space takes time, and I was impressed with Robert’s patience not only with myself but with my overseas executives. He never tired of our endless meetings and requests. We found a space we love. And in spite of us concluding our deal, Robert every so often comes by to chat and make sure all is going well professionably and personally. I enthusiastically recommend Robert and Optimal Spaces to anyone looking for space in New York City. Sincerely, Evelyn Pabon Product and Sales Manager C2 Inc. - Contempo Group

Why Optimal Spaces –
Tenant Broker

  • Save 15–20% on your business costs.
  • Save 100–200 hours of research.
  • Access to all available 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?
2. It Almost Always Costs You Nothing
3. Access to “Hidden” Inventory
4. Negotiating Beyond Base Rent
5. Time Savings & Process Management
6. Mitigating Risk (the “Gotchas”)
