Office Services


Structured tenant and landlord representation for Portland office users—renewals, relocations, comps, and lease negotiations focused on total occupancy cost and deal terms that drive outcomes.

Office leasing decisions in Portland are won on preparation and clarity—market comps, a realistic shortlist, and negotiation that focuses on the terms that actually move outcomes. These services support tenants and landlords across renewals, relocations, expansions, and lease-up assignments, with a clear process from strategy through execution.


OFFICE LEASING

  • Office landlord representation focused on lease-up strategy, positioning, and disciplined execution. Work typically includes pricing guidance using current comps, target tenant profiles, marketing and tour strategy, and negotiation on the terms that drive net outcome—TI structure, free rent, operating expense language, and options. Goal: reduce downtime and secure a lease that holds up after the LOI.

  • Office tenant representation for relocations, expansions, and new leases across the Portland metro. The process starts with requirements and true comps, then narrows the market to a realistic availability shortlist based on headcount, layout, parking, budget, and timing. Proposals are compared using effective economics (rent + concessions + expenses), with negotiation focused on TI, free rent, parking, options, and CAM/expense language.

  • Office lease renewals built around leverage, timing, and clean economics—not last-minute decisions. Work includes a renewal benchmark (current comps + effective economics), a stay-vs-move comparison, and a negotiation plan targeting TI/free rent, term, options, operating expenses, and maintenance responsibilities. Starting early creates credible alternatives and improves outcome.

VALUATION AND ADVISORY

  • A Broker Opinion of Value provides a practical valuation range based on comparable sales, income assumptions, and current buyer demand. It’s designed for decision-making—pricing strategy, refinance planning, partnership discussions, or pre-sale preparation. The output emphasizes supportable comps and the factors that actually move value in today’s Portland office market.

  • A lease rate opinion benchmarks asking and achievable rents using current comps and availability—then translates that into a supportable range for budgeting or pricing. For tenants, it clarifies negotiating leverage and effective economics. For landlords, it supports positioning and concession strategy (TI, free rent, expense structure) to drive net outcome and speed to lease.

  • Portfolio strategy helps tenants and owners make coordinated decisions across multiple leases or properties—renewals, consolidations, expansions, and dispositions. Work typically includes timeline mapping, market benchmarks, scenario comparisons, and a recommended sequencing plan that balances flexibility, cost control, and operational needs. The goal is fewer surprises and better terms across the portfolio, not one-off decisions.

“Matt helped us navigate a lease renewal that could have easily gone sideways. He benchmarked our terms against current market comps, laid out clear stay-vs-move options, and built a negotiation plan that gave us leverage without wasting time. The result was a clean renewal with improved economics and better flexibility for our business, and the process was organized, responsive, and low-stress from start to finish.”
