Analysis and strategy
At some point the question of expansion arises for every successful company in order to secure and expand its market position. The process always begins with an objective assessment of the current state as well as an extensive market and competition analysis. These form the basis for the identification of growth potential, from which the further strategy for achieving individual targets can be derived.
I will be delightet to support you in developing well-founded analyses and strategies for your further goal-oriented expansion.
Evaluation and acquisition
When entering new markets, know-how, experience and a functioning solid network are essential. I offer you the entire spectrum to achieve your individual expansion targets. This includes the acquisition of new stores, a conscientious examination and evaluation of the quality of the location or aspects of building law.
Benefit from my in-depth specialist knowledge and practical experience in all areas as well as my ever-growing network of contacts.
Rental process
Once the right location has been found, it is important to secure it and conclude a rental agreement on the best possible terms. Professional contract negotiations are, at this point of time, of utmost importance. Straightforward, assertive and transparent negotiations are essential in order to be successful.
In addition to my many years of experience as an expansion manager, I also have experience in leasing brokerage, which has proven to be a major advantage on the negotiating side. As a commercial lawyer, I also know the special importance of contract content, which in practice must offer legal certainty and clarity over the full rental period. If required, I can offer you the entire ready to sign process.
Optimization of the real estate portfolio
When evaluating your own real estate portfolio, new insights, quality of location and the change of location arise continuously. This always results in a new situation that requires adjustments and alterations. In practice, this constant optimization process means renegotiating with landlords about improved rental conditions for existing contracts, premature rental termination or moving to other locations.
I will be at your side to support you in these improvements.
Lease management
If required, I will take over the management of your lease contract portfolio concerning all activities that arise in practice such as deadline management, exercising options, terminations or coordinating with expansion or legal departments. In addition, I support your team in all matters relating to existing or future rental agreements.
Support with investments
Support will be offered if you plan to make investments or sales in prime locations. This includes searching for suitable properties, viewing and sales negotiations. Benefit from my excellent network of small and large investment companies and brokers.
