After you rent commercial property, what can you do, if anything, to improve its curb appeal? After all, you are only leasing the property. You really can’t make any structural changes to the building. It’s not yours! So, what can you do?
We are RDS Real Estate, leaders in the Greater Fort Worth Metro area with affordable and outstanding industrial space and commercial property for lease. Call us at 817-439-3224 for more information.
What does the lease say when you rent commercial property?
Allowing structural changes to a rental property is very rare. Our first suggestion, if you want to rent commercial property, is that you have a real estate lawyer look over the lease agreement; that way you will be absolutely sure of what you can, and cannot, do to the property upon moving in. Yes, it will cost you money hiring a lawyer, but best to pay now rather than face unpleasant surprises down the road. On the bright side, it may be possible to make some alterations which the building owner will approve of. After all, it is to the owner’s advantage to find a tenant who is long-lasting and respectful of the property, so they may work with you on improving the property so as to benefit your business.
What is your business image?
If we asked you this question right this very moment, would you be able to answer it? You might be surprised how many business owners are unable to do so.
The term “image” refers to everything we see when we look at someone or something. Whether we like it or not, our impression of things around us comes down to our perception of those objects. And while everyone perceives these objects differently, no two individuals will perceive the same thing exactly alike. Therefore, every individual and organization has their unique way of portraying themselves to others through visual representations, whether it be photographs, videos, websites, brochures, etc. These visual images play a huge role in shaping our perceptions of other entities, especially companies and organizations.
What do people think of when they hear your company name? What do you want them to think of? Matching those two answers should be one of your most important goals. For instance, in 2024, what is the image of Boeing Aircraft? It was once excellent; now it has fallen greatly.
Cosmetics can go a long way.
What people think of your business is affected by many factors. How you conduct business certainly plays a part, as does the interaction of your workforce with the buying public. A third way of improving your image is to improve the appearance of your storefront when you rent commercial property. First impressions are important, and when a client or customer drives up to your place of business, you want a positive first impression. What can you do, cosmetically, to impress people when they drive into your parking lot? For example, a party supply store should look very festive from the curb. A simple thing like a large, inflatable balloon is a positive foot forward in the improvement of your business image.
Improving image is an ongoing process, and it should affect every aspect of your business, including commercial property for rent.
