Terra National Real Estate Group is a boutique real estate firm with large firm
capabilities. Terra National specializes in corporate real estate outsourcing, tenant
representation, and surplus disposition services on a national and regional level.
By choosing to work with only a few select clients at any time, we are able to focus
all of our resources on their specific needs, hence creating highly unique and specialized
relationships.
Real Estate Experience
The Terra National team consists of highly seasoned veterans that have decades of
experience in real estate and business, with backgrounds as diverse as legal, finance,
marketing, bankruptcy and banking. This experience places us in the unique position
of understanding the varying needs of our clients; large and small, public and private.
Terra National consistently takes a "Best Practices" approach in our operations
and in how we approach our client relationships. Working collectively as a team
instead of as a group of independent "brokers", we utilize the combined experience
of our team for each client. Our highest compliments come in the form of recommendations
from our clients.
Corporate Real Estate Outsourcing
Terra National understands the nuances and specifics of working within a corporate
structure. A typical corporate real estate department is constantly in flux, as
companies expand, slow down, reposition etc. The scope of work can involve incessant
changes. Terra National provides a level of stability and responsiveness by successfully
integrating as an extension of the corporate structure. We do this without the costs
and inconsistency that can often be associated with an elaborate in-house Real Estate
Department.
Our corporate outsourcing experience with current and past clients include: participation
as active members of our client's strategic planning and ultimate decision making
processes; frequent interaction with our client's legal, construction, operations
and marketing departments; and active participation within our client's real estate
committee's. We make certain that our clients are in a position to make timely and
informed decisions utilizing current facts, market conditions, and ongoing competitive
updates and analysis. The extent of involvement is determined on an individual basis
with each client.
Surplus Property Disposition Services
Disposition services have always been an integral part of Terra National's focus.
We understand the fast paced and complex needs of this specialty in order to maximize
the value associated with a client's surplus property portfolio. Our knowledge of
the various types of deals associated with surplus property disposition (e.g. property
sales, sublease/lease assignments, and negotiation of lease terminations) assist
us in successfully disposing of a client's surplus real estate.
We have represented several companies in developing a strategy to properly evaluate,
market and dispose of their surplus real estate portfolios. In 2006 alone, we disposed
of approximately 2.5 million square feet of space out of an available portfolio
of 3 million square feet, resulting in a savings to our client of approximately
$150 million.
National Brokerage Network
Terra National created and utilizes a national brokerage network formed through
long standing relationships with top-notch local real estate brokers throughout
each market in the United States and the Caribbean. Our network is built on mutual
trust, loyalty and performance rather than by economic affiliation or local offices.
This relationship prevents the conflicts of interest that often occur at large national
real estate brokerage companies, and allows us to always select the very best partners
with whom to affiliate.
Clients have only a single source of contact managing their needs with the added
benefit of having a local presence in each market throughout the nation.
