Reduce Financial Risk

• Protecting TI Investments.  With most tenancies, substantial dollars are invested in tenant improvements, broker commissions and periods of reduced rents. We can ensure the soundness of your leasing commitments and protect the dollars being put at risk.
• Sanctioning a Building Acquisition.  Part of the risk in acquiring a commercial building is determining the viability of tenants-in-place.
  You can engage us to analyze the risk of those tenants failing during the
  life of the lease.
• Justifying Build-to-Suit Projects.  Build-to-suit always requires a serious capital commitment. We can accurately assess the level of tenant risk to reduce the chances of a failed tenancy.
• Restructuring a Troubled Tenancy.  We can assist you in determining whether a request for rent relief is justified and how viable the revised business plan is.
• Preparing a Building for Sale.  You can use reports from The Alliance Group as sales tools to help prospective buyers understand the stability and credit of large tenants-in-place.
