Negotiating with Tenants and Leasing Space During COVID-19 Webinar

Recorded On: 09/16/2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has made it difficult for some commercial tenants to pay rent. Safety concerns have also forced brokers and building owners to adapt how they show space to prospective tenants and have reshaped tenant preferences. This webinar, moderated by the author of research brief "WorkingTogether as a Team: Negotiating With Tenants and Leasing Space During COVID-19" from the NAIOP Research Foundation, will examine how industrial and office building owners, lenders and brokers are approaching negotiations with tenants and how owners and brokers have adapted leasing practices during the current pandemic.
