Ideal Tenant Identification

Commercial real estate developers and brokers benefit most from finding and placing tenants who are most likely to establish and maintain a successful business for years to come. If you are currently seeking a future tenant, you stand to profit from enlisting MindEcology?s Ideal Tenant Identification services.

  • Ideal Tenant Identification Explained

    Ideal tenant Identification was developed as a way to take the uncertainty out of tenant selection for busy real estate developers and brokers.

    The service entails taking an analytical approach to determining area demand for various types of industries and industry niches. The result of the process is the production of a detailed list of the industries and niches (i.e., sub-industry classifications) which are most likely to thrive after setting up shop in your property.

    Here are the steps in the process:

    1. We start by finding out the types of industries you would like to target . This will be largely dependent upon factors such as the size of your facility, zoning constraints, building characteristics, parking availability, and other related factors. The list usually starts with 3-5 or more desired target industries.

    2. Next, we create a list of comparison areas at a given radius. The chosen comparison areas are usually those within your city or town, and/or from other nearby cities and towns, when applicable. Industrial and residential/population-related factors are incorporated into the selection process to make sure we are choosing ?apples-to-apples? comparison areas.

    3. 20 or more comparison areas are then combined and then analyzed as a group in terms of their overall industry composition. This becomes the baseline against which to compare the industry composition of the area around the property you are promoting.

    4. Each of the selected target industry types is indexed against the baseline of the group of comparison areas in order to find out which areas under-index (i.e., are under-represented) in your area.

    5. Finally, for those industries that under-index, we go a level deeper to find which segments under-index . Segments are comprised of a combination of employee (or revenue) size and industry niche (i.e., industry sub-classification).

    6. As an additional service, MindEcology can also provide you with a complete list of under-indexing companies for those niches that you choose to target. The list includes full contact information for key decision-makers working at those companies.
