How commercial space is selected
A business looking for space is matching technical requirements: area, ceiling height, power capacity, loading access, parking and — for retail — footfall and neighbouring tenants. Residential-style listings with photographs and a price per square metre cannot support that, so tenants view properties that were never suitable and agents waste days. Lease terms are the second opacity, and they determine whether a business can afford the space at all.
What we build for a commercial agency
First, listings with full technical parameters and floor plans, since that is how a shortlist is built. Second, footfall and neighbouring tenant data for retail space, which is the real variable for a shop. Third, lease terms published — duration, indexation, fit-out contribution — because those decide affordability. Fourth, enquiry routing by space type and size, so a warehouse requirement does not queue behind an office viewing.
