Close to Seattle & Eastside providing good location for those working in those areas How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

the owner would typically pay the commissions on a commercial lease; however, an option to renew is an option to renew. it just gets renewed. there is no new lease, no new leasing agents, none of that. it sounds like they aren't exercising their option to renew. they are essentially letting the existing lease expire and negotiating a new one. my response would be - we either renew as is as provided under the existing lease please plan on vacating as we'll start marketing. it is possible that we may come to terms on a new lease but no guarantees.....
