Considering a relocation or opening a new lab? We will undertake a needs analysis, understand your current position, search the market for options, define a strategy for and lead on lease negotiations and supervise matters through to completion of the new lease. We can also advise on the exit strategy from existing premises.  

We will leverage our network to identify off market opportunities where these best meet the needs of our clients. 

Does your existing property portfolio meet the future operational needs of your business? Does it fit future planning cycles? We will review your existing leases and space, and assess these against your current and future needs to provide a clear future property strategy. Whether you occupy a single property or have a nationwide portfolio, we will define an approach to optimise costs and best support your business strategy.

Do you have space that’s surplus to your needs? We will assess the options available to you and use our market awareness to minimise your remaining liabilities. 

We undertake lease renewals, rent reviews and lease regear negotiations on behalf of occupiers on all science related spaces including labs, offices, engineering and manufacturing spaces. We use our specialist sector knowledge to ensure the best outcomes for clients and to ensure they consider all options available to them.

The timeline varies depending on your needs, but we recommend at least 6 months, preferably 12 months in advance of being operational depending on how complex your lab specification is and how much space you need. But we have seen some organisations do it in under a week! 

If you speak to us we can discuss what you can do to get ready, to reduce risks and to understand the full process, even if you’re not in a position to commit to property now. This avoids late rushing which can result in compromised spaces, impacting business performance. A typical process includes:

• Initial consultation – We understand your business, space needs, and future growth plans.
• Property search, assessment & shortlisting – We identify the best available options, on and off market.
• Viewings & negotiations – We help you assess properties and secure the best deal for your needs.
• Lease agreement finalisation – We work with you to ensure a smooth transaction.

If you need move-in ready space, we can fast-track the process. If your business has specialised requirements, we guide you through custom build or fit-out solutions.

Understanding your business needs from the space, and what landlords will expect from you very early on is really important. This includes both daily operational considerations, and whether the building is physically suitable too.  While it may be time consuming initially it will pay dividends during the property selection process and lease negotiations, reducing risk and saving time.  

Track Real Estate can guide companies through this process, ensuring you’re prepared for landlord’s expectations and the process flows smoothly.

Where occupiers engage us to act on their behalf and in their best interests, we do a full search of all options, on and off market. We charge on a phased basis relative to the time commitment and value added at each phase.  We can also offer a fixed fee basis. For more details, please get in touch and we can have a chat. 

We also work with occupiers to:

• Undertake specific project consultancy work (e.g. for portfolio reviews).
• Market surplus space to rent on their behalf. 
• Undertake lease renewals and rent reviews.

These rates are often project specific so please enquire to discuss further.

Alternatively, if you just want to review the options we’re marketing for landlords then take a look at the Properties advertised on our website and get in touch, and we’d be happy to point you in the right direction.
