New Guide Shares Secrets to Successful Landlord Retail Leasing

Retail industry news delivered directly to you. Subscribe to Retail-Insider.

Canadian Retail Industry expert Peter Morris has launched Masterguide to Leasing for Retail Landlords e-manual. It provides proven best practices in four areas of the lease negotiation process, educating commercial real estate professionals about the latest trends in leases and little-known techniques to enhance revenues while reducing enterprise risk.
 
Concepts in the 261-page book come from actual hands-on, practical experience leasing retail properties. It is based on the experience of the author, Peter Morris, who has personally leased over 5 million square feet of retail space throughout North America and administered to thousands of tenant leases crafted by dozens of North America’s leading landlords and tenants during his almost 35 years in commercial real estate. Mr. Morris is a certified and recognized retail property expert holding multiple senior accreditations in the leasing, management and marketing of retail properties. He has worked with institutional owners such as Cadillac Fairview and Brookfield Properties, and as COO for Partners REIT as well as in a third party capacity with Colliers International. As one client aptly said: “I know what I know, but Peter knows what the global industry knows.”

“There is a hole in the industry for this type of specialized knowledge and advanced training,” said Mr. Morris, who has taught advanced leasing courses via Colliers University, to commercial Realtors at the Canadian Real Estate Association Commercial Conference and even through a government of Kuwait program. Mr. Morris said he receives very positive feedback from both readers of his book and his workshop attendees. “It is gratifying to hear from those who have been in the industry for many years that they found the information fresh and valuable,” he said.
 
Each of the 15 easy-to-read chapters builds on the previous one to provide a complete understanding of a leasing process specifically benefiting retail property landlords. Those who should consider reading it include retail investors, owners, asset managers, leasing agents, property managers, commercial real estate lawyers, lease administrators, paralegals, accountants, and anyone else interested in improving the value to retail properties. Those new to the industry will gain the equivalent of decades of knowledge, while industry veterans will gain fresh, new insights.
