ADVISORY STRATEGYAPPROACHOur approach to successfully leasing or selling your property is to identify your asset’s inherent qualities and external factors along with current market dynamics and competition, while considering achievable rates in an expeditious manner. The team will qualify all potential prospects, prepare and present all offers, handle all transactions and negotiations, while assuring you are getting the best market rates to fulfill your established real estate goals. This proven process will immediately raise awareness of your property and the current available space to the Triangle area brokers as well as our database of prospects.

PROPERTY ANALYSIS AND POSITIONING PLANTo best position your property and to capitalize on all the potential opportunities in the market that best serves your needs, our team will thoroughly investigate your property’s competition, your potential client base, area work and household demographics, future and planned developments, the location and proximity of the property to retail amenities, major destinations such as hospitals, universities, transportation resources, as well as highly coveted areas for working and living. With this information in hand, we will be able to develop a “Positioning Plan” that will help us to define your property’s unique marketing campaign.
