3 Reasons why NY Office Rental Tenants still have the Upper Hand

1. Negotiating Power: Tenants retain significant leverage.

    ♦ Owners of mid-tier and no-frills buildings are offering substantial rent discounts and free rent. 

    ♦ Class A and trophy buildings are offering a combination of incentives including modest rent reductions, rental abatements, high-quality prebuilt offices, and onsite amenities.

2. Flexible Lease Terms: Shorter lease durations and fully furnished move-in ready offices are more widely available.

3. Workspace Competition and Perceived Economic Risk: Corporate Americas’ embrace of coworking models coupled with uncertainty about the local and national economy is motivating Landlords to close deals.
