Negotiations

Going Beyond the Ordinary for Clients

Tenant rep brokers only have one party’s interest in mind – Yours! Since tenant reps work for you and not a landlord, they are able to aggressively respect your interests during the negotiating process. These are just a few examples of what Levi Smith has done for his clients.
