CORPORATE REAL ESTATE SERVICES (CRES)

A successful real estate strategy goes beyond finding space. Our professionals uncover opportunities for your business to reduce real estate risk, save costs, improve productivity and set the foundation for continued success.

We help corporate real estate professionals and business leaders change their perspective by looking at the true cost of occupancy, rather than just the cost of space. This enables businesses to gather meaningful data about their total commercial real estate (CRE) spend, and save costs through more strategic real estate planning and management.

PROJECT AND DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

You have a project. We’ll deliver an inspired solution.

Your project is critically important to your organization and you need it done efficiently, effectively, on time and on budget. The project is complex and the stakes are high, with specific goals and outcomes you must achieve.

You need a resource who knows how to manage complexity, whom you trust and who’s easy to work with. A partner who has successfully completed projects of a similar type and scale to yours.

CONSULTING

Answer your most pressing questions about all things real estate.

Where should we locate? How much real estate do we need? When should we act? How much should we pay? How should I structure my team? Who can I turn to for help? Look no further.

City Estate Management partner with commercial real estate executives like you to deliver technology-based, data-driven strategies and programs that advance your organization’s goals—and elevate your role as a leader in the enterprise.

BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC INCENTIVES

Discover economic incentives that turn your real estate properties into a greater source of value.

If your company is expanding, relocating, or simply looking to renegotiate an existing lease, we can reduce your real estate costs by uncovering business and economic incentives that are often overlooked.

We’ll work on your behalf with state and local officials to identify, negotiate and secure economic development, tax and other incentives for your company. We use a proven process to highlight project fact patterns and propose financial-incentive solutions that benefit both corporate goals and public economic development.

TENANT REPRESENTATION

Regardless of your company’s size, we’ll help you identify the right space so you can focus on what matters most–running a successful business. We’ll analyze your business needs, advise an occupancy plan and then execute with precision, negotiating the best possible lease terms.

Our focus is on your success—lowering your real estate costs and risks while maximizing workplace flexibility and productivity.

With a long track record representing both tenants and landlords, we understand what motivates each side in a lease negotiation. We get to know you, your business and its goals. That information—paired with up-to-date real estate research, local market expertise and long-standing industry relationships—helps us develop an occupancy plan specific to your company.
