Recruiting Corporate Retail Tenants without a Broker

[Jason Mak]

Hi there,

Anyone have luck recruiting and signing corporate retail tenants without going through a broker?  I have a property for lease and have some retail brands in mind.  Was wondering if the best way was to contact them directly through an email or phone number I find on their website to ask for their "real estate" or "new store" contacts.  Or if this was a waste of time as most of these large retail chains always go through a broker?

thank you in advance
