Why brokerage clients hire us

Three things you get from working with us.

01

We sit on every side of every deal

Landlord today, tenant tomorrow, owner the day after. We understand deal economics from every angle because we work in real estate from every angle. That means better intelligence, better pricing, and better terms.

02

Real comps, not pro formas

We collect rent checks at 40+ properties and review the books at all of them. We know what tenants actually pay, what concessions are actually being given, and what's happening in the market this week — not last quarter.

03

Deals that hold up at year five

Our name has been on the door for 110 years. We close transactions that work the day they sign and still work five years later. That's how relationships compound.

Our four brokerage services

Four practices, one team.

Brokerage is not a single skill. Landlord rep is not tenant rep. Investment sales is not owner/user sales. We run each as a distinct discipline with the right strategy, the right comps, and the right people on every assignment.

01

Landlord Representation

Full-service leasing for owners of multi-tenant retail and multi-tenant office property. We market your space through every channel that matters, qualify tours rigorously, structure LOIs that protect your interests, and negotiate leases that hold up to year-five scrutiny. From listing to lease execution, we run the process so you don't have to.

Focus areas
  • Multi-tenant retail centers (grocery-anchored, shadow-anchored, neighborhood shopping centers, and strip formats)
  • Multi-tenant office buildings (Class B and C, medical, mixed-use)

02

Tenant Representation

Site selection, market analysis, LOI structuring, lease negotiation, and renewal strategy for retail and office tenants. From single-location operators to multi-site brands, we represent the tenant interest the way a sophisticated landlord wishes their tenant would. Most tenant rep engagements come at no direct cost to the tenant — our fee is paid by the landlord through a co-broker arrangement.

Focus areas
  • Retail space — new locations, expansion, relocation, and renewal
  • Office space — all classes, from professional services to medical to mixed-use

03

Owner/User Sales

Buy-side and sell-side representation for owner-occupied commercial real estate. Different buyer pool, different financing dynamics, different valuation logic than investment sales. We understand SBA 504 and 7(a) financing, build-out and occupancy timing, and the long-term hold considerations that drive owner/user transactions.

Focus areas
  • Owner-occupied office buildings
  • Owner-occupied industrial, R&D, and flex
  • Retail buildings for owner-operator businesses

04

Investment Sales

Sell-side and buy-side representation for income-producing commercial real estate. We underwrite assets using real operating data from properties we manage, market through our investor and broker networks, structure deal terms, and close. Because we also operate similar assets, our pro formas tie to actual market performance — not optimistic assumptions.

Focus areas
  • Income-producing retail centers, office buildings, and mixed-use
  • Net-leased single-tenant assets
  • Small to mid-size portfolio sales

Frequently asked questions

Questions clients ask before they call us.

How are commissions structured?

Commission structure varies by transaction type. For landlord representation, we charge a percentage of gross lease value over the term. For tenant representation, our fee is most often paid by the landlord through a co-broker arrangement, at no direct cost to the tenant. For investment and owner/user sales, we charge a percentage of sale price. Full structure is laid out in writing before any engagement begins.

Do you require an exclusive listing agreement?

Yes for landlord and seller representation. Exclusive listings let us invest fully in marketing, intelligence gathering, and broker network outreach without conflicts of interest. Terms are property-specific and outlined clearly in the listing agreement before signing.

How long does a typical deal take?

Leasing: 30 to 120 days from listing to executed lease, depending on space type and market activity. Investment sales: 60 to 180 days from listing to close. Owner/user sales: 60 to 180 days, sometimes longer due to SBA financing timelines. Larger and more complex transactions take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline at the start of every engagement.

How do you market a property?

Multi-channel. Standard placement on LoopNet, Crexi, and CoStar. Direct outreach to prospects, active tenants and retailers, and the active broker community in Central Indiana and beyond. Owned channels — our website, email list, and social — for relationship-based marketing. Custom collateral including aerial photography, marketing flyers, and offering memoranda based on what the property warrants.

Can you work with out-of-state clients?

Yes. We regularly represent out-of-state landlords, tenants, and investors on Central Indiana assignments. We can also coordinate with brokers in other markets through co-broker arrangements when a client has needs outside our service area.

Do you also manage properties?

Yes. Many of our brokerage clients also engage SRG for property management on the same or different assets. The two services are independently priced but reinforce each other operationally — we already know the property, the tenants, and the rent roll, which makes both jobs sharper.

What if I need help with something outside leasing or sales?

Consulting work covers everything that doesn't fit cleanly into a leasing or sales engagement — site selection studies, portfolio strategy, lease-vs-buy analysis, complex dispositions, and market entry research. Separate engagement, separate fee structure. See our Consulting page for detail.

Ready to lease, sell, or find space?

Tell us the basics and we'll get back to you within one business day. Initial conversations and written proposals are free.
