Tenant Services & Pre-Leasing Studies
Unlocking Property Potential and Tenant Loyalty.
PRE-LEASING PACKAGES
MMC’s in-depth knowledge of the most current and relevant tenants in the retail world allows us to create highly customized pre-leasing packages to assist in our clients’ leasing efforts. The high-quality renderings, fly-through animations and drawings within these packages are tailored to appeal to specific tenants and the aspects that are most important to them. Our in-house expertise of retail focused renderings and an understanding of our client’s needs enables us to produce high-quality pre-leasing packages with great efficiency.
MERCHANDISING PLANS
Merchandising plans are overall floor plans of a property where existing, new and proposed Commercial Retail Units (CRUs) are indicated in an easy to read and clear overall graphic representation of a property’s Gross Leaseable Area (GLA). Merchandising plans also illustrate all the property services and amenities, such as entrances, washrooms, guest services, security & management offices, loading areas, parking, barrier-free accessibility, etc.
MMC’s experience in creating and managing merchandising plans on behalf of a property allows us to be able to turn around quick merchandising studies and proposals for leasing efforts and help clients maintain updated plans that reflect the most current tenant mix.
LEASE OUTLINE DRAWINGS [LODS]
Lease Outline Drawings are SK drawings (sketches) based on merchandising plans, created to illustrate leasing potentials for prospective tenants. Informative to both the landlord and tenant, these studies are typically focused upon an individual or group of CRUs and indicate base building conditions particular to the premise. They can be completely customized to meet the landlord and tenant’s needs, and indicate information such as CRU number, approximate area and dimensions, lease line perimeter, storefront width(s), adjacent tenants, proximity to nearby amenities, access to back of house services etc. LODs can be completed quickly and efficiently by our team as stand alone design studies, or can be included as part of pre-leasing packages.
TENANT OUTLINE DRAWINGS [TODS]
Preliminary Architectural TODs (ATOD) are floor plans of the respective CRU indicating all base building components in accordance with the specified Schedule C requirements. The package may include storefront elevation(s) if required. ATODs are intended to be disseminated to clients and consultants for preliminary coordination purposes.
Final TODs are a fully coordinated working drawing package that includes all architectural, structural, mechanical & electrical information required to adequately describe the space. The architectural package includes floor plan(s), storefront section(s) and elevation(s), as well as all relevant plans and section details, exterior wall sections (if applicable) storefront heights, clear heights and total area. In summary, TODs work in conjunction with Schedule C and Design Criteria to coordinate tenant design and construction to produce high-quality tenant fit-outs that ultimately maintain the desired design language throughout a property.
ARCHITECTURAL CERTIFICATES
Architectural Area Certificates are completed as a means of certifying the final “as-built” conditions and area of a CRU. This drawing is based on site inventory information and used by clients in finalizing leases with tenants. Area Certificates are stamped drawings that include the CRU number, final area and all final dimensions. Once a tenant storefront is complete, they are then verified and if the lease limits have been exceeded, are then reflected on an updated Area Certificate.
Tile Certificate is a final drawing which indicates the “as-built” condition of the storefront tile placed within a CRU, based on site inventory. This drawing illustrates the final closure line at the tenant storefront which separates the mall tile area with the tenant’s tile area.
