Argent Trading Testimonial

Argent Trading testimonial To Whom it May Concern: I have had the opportunity to work with Optimal Spaces Inc. (specifically, Stephen Sunderland) over the last 18 months. Stephen was hired to find a reasonably priced lease for corporate office space that would support our highly professional environment. I considered this to be a significant challenge since Manhattan was experiencing a severe shortage in available professional space. However, Stephen found a space that exceeded my expectations and that was approximately 15% below current market rates for comparable space. An important aspect of working with Stephen is the level to which I can trust him to act in my best interest. I believe that Stephen possesses in-depth knowledge of the New York City real estate market and is responsive and performs his work in a very professional manner. I am impressed by Stephen's sincere desire to understand his clients' needs. It is clear to me that Stephen is interested un building mutually beneficial business relationships. I am happy to recommend Optimal Spaces Inc. to other growing businesses, and I look forward to working with Optimal Spaces Inc. again. Sincerely, William Levitz President Argent Trading, LLC

Why Optimal Spaces –
Tenant Broker

  • No fee for clients renting space.

  • 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.

  • 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”)
Summary: Don’t rely on the landlord’s agent. A tenant broker is your advocate, provides better data, negotiates a complete package, and typically costs you nothing.
