The variety of retail real estate requires a variety of specialized skills. NAI Harding Dahm’s general retail, restaurant/entertainment and hospitality specialists understand the growth strategies of retailers, the demographic trends of trade areas, the traffic counts, tenant mixes, competition analyses, taxes and valuations. We represent tenants and owners in lease and build-to-suit negotiations from suburban malls, retail neighborhood centers, big-box discount stores, fast-food chains and restaurants to hotels.

Developing retail real estate, whether it’s an outparcel or a free-standing site, requires an even higher level of experience. We help our clients understand barriers to entry, entitlement issues, zoning requirements, set-backs, parking rations, easement agreements, signage restrictions, soil conditions, pre-leasing lender requirements and other factors that mitigate risk. This knowledge coupled with our transaction-management technology and GIS services, enables NAI Harding Dahm to produce results unparalleled in the industry.
