Lease Construction and Negotiation
Lease construction and negotiation is often a lease-seeker’s greatest opportunity to control costs and protect future billing integrity. Austin Hanover is a market leader in lease construction. While base rent and build-out allowances are often the focus of lease negotiations; additional rent, utility clauses and costs, audit clauses and subleasing clauses are where the smart lease negotiator creates true value, flexibility and tenant protections. Navigating the body of a lease and negotiating complex clausal language is where Austin Hanover sets itself above the competition and where our expertise and all phases of the requirements and forward-looking analyses come together. Austin Hanover’s principals have decades of experience dissecting leases and can help with:

• Lease Construction
• Lease Negotiation
• Lease Renegotiation
• Lease Consultation and Advisory Services

Project and Transition Management
Once a space is identified and a tenant-centric lease negotiated, Austin Hanover can facilitate your transition starting with any potential build-outs through to the physical move itself. These services include:

• Facility and Infrastructure Planning
• Project Management
• Project Team Composition
• Design and Construction Control
• Relocation Planning and Management
• Transition Strategy and Planning
• Relocation Documents and Tools
• Vendor Selection and Interface
• On-Site Move Coordination

Lease Maintenance
Once a transaction has been finalized, Austin Hanover, through our affiliate Commercial Tenant Services, Inc., can regularly audit your landlord billings and ensure landlord lease compliance and billing integrity. Audit windows are bookmarked and we can regularly notify you of upcoming dates and windows so you may take advantage of all lease-designated rights at your disposal.

And of course should your situation unexpectedly change and a restructuring of your lease be desired, all of the expertise that went into constructing your lease will again be at your disposal in whatever capacity as appropriate.
