Why CRETA

An advisory layer built around the occupier.

No landlord listings. No dual agency. No legacy CBD-only playbook. Just modern, data-driven representation for the businesses that occupy commercial space.

Tenant-Only Representation

We exclusively represent occupiers, tenants, and buyers — never landlords. Ever.

Conflict-Free Advisory

Zero landlord listings, zero dual agency, zero conflicts of interest in our pipeline.

Post-COVID Strategy

A platform built natively for hybrid work, downsizing, and decentralized portfolios.

National Market Intelligence

One advisory layer across every metro, every submarket, every asset class.

Leasing + Acquisitions

Full coverage from a single 5,000 SF lease to a multi-state acquisition program.

Occupancy Strategy

Headcount, hybrid attendance, real estate spend — modeled together, not separately.

Site Selection

Quant + qualitative site decisions powered by live demographic and migration data.

Expansion Planning

Multi-market growth plans tied to your hiring funnel and capital plan.

Data-Driven Negotiation

Every concession benchmarked against current comps — never anecdote.

Post-COVID Commercial Real Estate

The market didn't normalize.
It reorganized.

The pre-2020 playbook for office, retail, and industrial leasing no longer maps to how organizations operate. CRETA was built from a blank sheet for what came next.

A future-focused thesis
Footprint Reorganization
HQPRE-2020HUBPOST-2020

One headquarters became a constellation. The median occupier now operates 3–7 satellite footprints by design.

Footprint Compression
−35% median
Pre-2020 SF100%
First Renewal65%

Hybrid Work

Tuesday–Thursday is the new standard. Lease scope and floorplate strategy must reflect it.

Office Downsizing

Median occupier is shedding 30–40% of pre-2020 footprint at first renewal.

Flexible Occupancy

Coworking, swing space, and flex floors are now structural — not transitional.

Migration Trends

Talent has dispersed. Hub-and-spoke and secondary-metro plans are baseline strategy.

Decentralized Operations

One HQ is rare. Most tenants now operate 3–7 satellite footprints by design.

Adaptive Leasing

Shorter terms, expansion options, surrender rights, and walk-away clauses are standard asks.

Acquisition Opportunities

Distressed CBD office and right-priced industrial assets are quietly trading at multi-cycle lows.

Cost Reduction

Blend-and-extends, TI capture, and free rent stacking are tenant leverage in this cycle.

Services

End-to-end advisory for the modern occupier.

A unified service set spanning leasing, acquisitions, occupancy strategy, and expansion — delivered across every asset class.

The Advisory Stack

Three layers of advisory. One occupier at the core.

Every CRETA engagement is built around the tenant. Transactions execute the deal, Strategy shapes the footprint, and Intelligence informs every decision — delivered as one coordinated team.

Proprietary Advantage

Tools and methods built in-house.

Our advisory stack is developed internally and unavailable to landlord-side brokers. Every model, benchmark, and workflow exists to serve one client: the occupier.

Tenant Benchmark Engine

Live concession and effective rent data drawn exclusively from tenant-side transactions — not landlord pro formas.

Lease vs. Purchase Model

A proprietary 10-year NPV framework that accounts for TI, free rent, escalations, and exit optionality.

Portfolio Scenario Builder

Multi-market footprint planning tied to headcount projections, hybrid policies, and capital constraints.

Sublease Pricing Algorithm

Market-clearing rent estimates based on live vacancy, tenant demand, and concession stack in each submarket.

Site Selection Grid

Demographic, migration, and competitor-density scoring customized to each client's talent and customer profile.

Negotiation Playbook

Clause-level benchmarking across hundreds of leases. Every ask is backed by precedent, not opinion.

The Platform in Motion

Always advising.
Never standing still.

CRETA is a live advisory platform — comps, tours, models, and negotiations moving continuously across markets. A real-time pulse of tenant-side commercial real estate.
