Why I do this
Most tenants I meet had no idea they could have a broker on their side. They find a listing on LoopNet, call the number, and end up negotiating directly with a broker who — by law and contract — is working for the landlord. They sign a 5-year lease with provisions they don't understand, at a rate that was never tested, in a building with a CAM-reconciliation clause that will surprise them in year two.
That's not a fair fight. It's also completely avoidable. A good tenant rep costs you nothing (landlords pay all commissions), and the math almost always works in the tenant's favor — a single point of base-rent savings over a 5-year term pays for representation many times over.
How I work
- Requirements first. I won't send you a single listing until I understand your use, timing, square-footage range, loading needs, zoning constraints, and budget. Fifteen minutes of scoping saves you weeks.
- On-market + off-market. Many of the deals I close involve off-market spaces never publicly listed — I track owner intent across the industrial market. If you have specific needs, I can often pull options that haven't hit the public listings yet.
- Comps, not vibes. Every proposal I evaluate goes against a comp set — recent transactions, not asking rates. This is where the 10–15% savings come from.
- Lease review in plain English. I'll walk you through CAM, tax, insurance, TI allowance, expansion rights, assignment clauses, and anything else before you sign.
- Confidential. Many tenants don't want their current landlord to know they're looking. I default to confidential outreach until we're ready.
Submarkets I cover
West Palm Beach, Riviera Beach, Lake Worth, Lantana, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, and Royal Palm Beach. I'll work outside the county on specific assignments, but my relationship network and market data are deepest here.

A note on pricing
I never charge tenants directly. Landlord-paid commissions are already baked into asking rates whether or not you bring a broker — using one doesn't make your deal more expensive, and not using one doesn't make it cheaper. If you're uncomfortable with how the commission structure works on a specific deal, we'll talk about it before you sign anything.
