Greg - Based on your description of the building and the types of tenants best suited (small mom & pop independent tenants) for the property, so long as the space is in decent/good condition, the tenant should do their own fit out. That said, I would make sure the spaces are appealing to prospects, which means replace any ceiling tiles or lights needing to be replaced; clean or replace the carpet, if needed; patch any holes in drywall, if any. clean the front windows. Many mom & pop tenants are looking for 1 - 3 year leases, so don't go overboard. If you are approached by a franchise concept, most likely they will be looking for TI contribution from the landlord - they will likely do a 5 year lease with a 5 year option. Some tenants, in addition to the TI, may also have a vanilla shell work letter with certain requirements for hvac, electrical, plumbing, flooring, restrooms, gas, etc. In return for this, they will do longer term leases (likely 10 yr initial terms). If a small, independent mom & pop is pushing for TI, most LL's first fall back position would be to provide some free rent after commencement / opening in lieu of TI. Note, I am not defining "free rent" as the construction / fit-out period. Also, if for example, you give 2 months of free rent, add this to the back end of term so at least you get a full term from them. Also, if a prospective tenant asks about rent and TI, you don't want them to lose them on that call by telling them no; it's important to say TI may be available for qualified tenants based on tenants financials, the rent, length of term, etc. Also, let them know the rent you quoted is based on an as is delivery; depending on TI amount and length of lease term, the rent quote provide may need to be adjusted. Good luck! Damon
