Mission Statement

"To provide clients with the most complete, unbiased real estate information and the most effective and efficient systems in business real estate, combining international reach with local expertise to obtain the best possible space at the best possible terms."

GLOBALLY REPRESENTING TENANTS AND BUYERS

Traditionally the role of the commercial brokerage firm has been to represent property, bring tenants or buyers to the table and negotiate a transaction in the best interest of the owner. Most brokers negotiate from both sides of the table, claiming to objectively represent an owner and a tenant or buyer in the same transaction. The pressure of retaining major listing arrangements for local and national accounts often influences the outcome of transactions within a firm.

ITRA does not believe it is possible to negotiate from both sides of the table. Because ITRA's clients are corporate tenants and buyers, we work on our client's behalf as partners, without conflict of interest and with total objectivity.

TEAMWORK, EXPERTISE, TALENT, VALUE

Traditional agents often want to keep control of a client and commissions to themselves when assessing an assignment and their course of action. Bringing in outside expertise within an office or in another market may jeopardize an agent's control of a client and will definitely cost them money. This agency-focused approach rarely works to the clients benefit.

ITRA affiliates bring a diverse "skillset", with specialties in many unique sectors of the economy. National and International expertise can be obtained from within the group to address the client's specific and complex needs because ITRA is a team of players who embrace a client-focused approach that utilizes the perspective of what is best for a particular client.

MAJOR MARKET REPRESENTATION

Local brokerage companies cannot serve a company's real estate need outside of their locale, leaving clients the problem of finding a broker and taking chances in unknown territories. Other firms use referral networks, but membership may take little more than money, and the levels of service vary widely among members with the receiving broker often having no relationship with the referring broker.

ITRA affiliates represent tenants and buyers. ITRA affiliates have relationships based on common goals, expertise and respect. ITRA clients benefit from broad geographic coverage with specific expertise in each market that ITRA serves.

EXPERIENCED MARKET LEADERS

In traditional firms, senior level brokers often act as "rainmakers" and are notorious for assigning the work to new brokers with limited experience. Referrals to outside offices do not attract the attention and expertise of senior level brokers and junior associates take the one-time transactions and learn the business at the client's expense.

ITRA affiliates are experienced and provide a long-term history of problem solving, deal making, information analysis, negotiation acumen, and market knowledge. Each ITRA affiliate is required to have at least ten years experience in the field of real estate and has passed ITRA's rigorous application and screening process.

WIDE RANGE OF SERVICES

While traditional agencies have a range of services for owners, many are in direct conflict with the tenant's or buyers's interest. Serving distinctly different interests fractures a broker's focus and limits their ability to consider the larger picture from a tenant's or buyer's perspective.

ITRA affiliates represent buyers and tenants -- all day every day -- so they can provide highly specialized and comprehensive service. Just a few of examples of many services provided are:

• New leases
• Renewals
• Dispositions
• Tax Incentives
• Lease Management
• Auditing
