This service is revolutionizing how Dallas small business owners set up shop
Last year, Dallas entrepreneurs and business owners were introduced to a groundbreaking service called TenantBase.
The commercial real estate brokerage introduced a new experience built around technology, with a personal touch when it comes to customer service, that helps small businesses and startups find — then lease or purchase — their ideal office space.
In less than two years, it has revolutionized how Dallasites set up shop. In the same way that you might search for a new apartment or house online, you can now easily search for your next commercial space.
Narrow it down by neighborhood or rely on your in-house, local advisor, who is always available to help with your search. And the best part? The service is offered at no cost to the client.
"TenantBase helps its clients solve a difficult problem," says TenantBase Dallas regional director Brady Evans. "Many decision-makers have never leased space for their company, and our hundreds of client reviews speak to the service we provide and the challenges we eliminate for our clients."
What started with five advisors in 2017 has grown to 20 advisors in 2019, which includes opening an office in Fort Worth.
The company's proprietary software streamlines not only the office-search process, but also lease negotiations so that you don't have to waste any time while still ensuring you get the best deal for your business. And the TenantBase team is always there to assist in any way they can.
"TenantBase has a very collaborative culture, which makes us unique to brokerage," says Evans. "Because we leverage technology, our advisors and tenants are working together over the platform to find the right options and streamline communication in the leasing process.
As more and more people are starting their businesses in Dallas — it is one of the best cities in the country for it, after all — TenantBase is jumping in to help.
"We're seeing a lot of companies moving to Texas, especially from California," Evans notes, "and some very interesting office projects kicking off. We're excited to be here for all of it."
