Tenant representation for New Jersey office and industrial users

A firm that represents you, and an advisor who knows exactly how your business operates.

You work with TILT, and we bring in the right advisor for you: a specialist with a track record in businesses like yours, chosen for what they know, not the firm they're with. We lead your engagement from the first conversation through the signed lease.

No cost to you. In commercial leasing, the landlord pays the commission.

Why does specialized experience matter?

We choose your advisor based on their track record with companies that use space the way you do, in the areas where your business needs to be. Here's what that experience looks for.

Industrial

  • The building had enough power. The area kept losing it.

    The electrical service could run the equipment. But the area is known for regular flooding and outages.

  • The building had the required sprinklers. The town asked for more.

    The tenant stored lithium-ion batteries, and the town required fire protection the building didn't have.

  • Sealing the floor was the landlord's responsibility. Until the lease was signed.

    The letter of intent listed it as a delivery condition. The lease never defined it, and that gap cost the tenant tens of thousands of dollars.

How TILT works with industrial tenants

Office

  • The commute was easy. Until the new building opened.

    A large development down the road was already approved when the tenant signed. When it opened, the traffic made it harder to keep staff.

  • The temperature was comfortable on the tour. Until the team moved in.

    The suite faced west, and every afternoon the cooling couldn't keep up with the sun and a full office.

  • The rent increases were spelled out. The operating expenses weren't.

    The tenant paid its share of increases over the base year, usually its first year in the space. The base year was set low and never negotiated, so the tenant paid more every year.

How TILT works with office tenants

How it works

How does this work?

Step 1

We define what you need, together.

We start with the questions that shape your requirements: the space, the area, the timing and how your business will use it. We use your answers to choose your advisor.

Step 2

We bring in your advisor.

Each advisor in our network is a specialist with a verified track record in their field and your local market. After your first conversation, you decide whether to move forward.

Step 3

We lead the work.

Your advisor brings knowledge of your market and your type of space. Your options are compared, with financial analysis to support each one, and the key terms of your lease are explained.

What happens after you sign?

We're still your resource. If something comes up with your landlord, such as a delivery condition that wasn't met, an operating expense charge you don't understand or a problem with building management, call us. TILT's founder spent more than a decade on the landlord side, so we know how landlords look at these issues. We'll help you understand where you stand, advocate for you, and point you to an attorney or accountant when the issue calls for one.

What will this cost me?

Working with TILT costs you nothing.

Leasing commissions are a normal expense for a landlord in owning and operating a building. When your lease is signed, the landlord pays a market commission to TILT, as the brokerage firm representing you. You're never billed for it.

How is TILT different from a typical brokerage firm?

The difference starts with who does the work. Tenants often choose a broker for the firm's name, its market share or how well the broker sells. At TILT, your advisor is chosen for how your business operates and the market you're in.

A typical brokerage firm

TILT

Brokers can take on any requirement, even outside their specialty: office brokers on warehouses, industrial brokers on cold storage.
Your advisor specializes in your type of space.
There's no visible standard for how the work is run, so it's hard to tell whether you're being well served.
Every engagement runs to our Service Standards, so you know what to expect.
You're limited to the brokers and resources of one firm.
Advisors in our network work at other firms, and yours is chosen on a verified track record.
