Maximizing Your Tenant Improvement Allowance

By / Blog / Comments Off on Maximizing Your Tenant Improvement Allowance

TENANT IMPROVEMENT, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS “TI”, IS DEFINED AS AN ALLOWANCE PROVIDED BY THE LANDLORD TO BUILD OUT OR RETROFIT A COMMERCIAL SPACE FOR THE TENANT’S SPECIFIC — USE.

Things tenants should know for their improvements…Storefront

When starting any new project it is important to first establish a budget. TIs are no different. Tenants should negotiate an allowance or a budget from the landlord prior to inking the tenancy contract. For example, if a tenant is looking to build a Dentistry inside of an office building, the tenant should go through what exactly needs to be added. The Dentist can do it themselves, and we encourage that! However, we also understand that no everyone’s specialty is creating an effective affordable floor plan. That’s where we come in. Here are certain questions to ask yourself as you think about updating your space.

  • office TI, TI, Tenant ImprovementWhat is your TI allowance?
  • What would you like your floor plan to be?
  • What functions would you like your new space to perform…(hospitality, medical, office, etc.)?
  • What design or style will your completed TI provide your business/space?
    • If you’re doing exterior work, are there any energy codes that should be adhered to? If so, How can you maintain the energy standards?
