We apply our market knowledge and deep understanding of the industrial and logistics real estate needs to facilitate the conception and execution of state-of-the-art facilities. We leverage on our access to the major market players and range of added value services to help landlords fulfill the complete potential of their investments.

Planning, development and evaluation

We provide advice and know-how throughout the development process. Our approach is to consult developers about technical parameters, facility specifications, layouts, must-have project and building parameters and services. Our experts will evaluate the project’s marketability and further adjust the concept so that it fully captures existing and future demand. Finally, they will propose optimal lease structures and pricing.

Landlord representation

We offer landlord representation services on exclusive and non-exclusive bases. C&W Forton will present the subject property directly to occupiers in a consistent and professional manner. We will then support negotiations with prospective tenants and coordinate the sequence of actions from the expression of initial interest offering, signing of heads of terms and finalization of contracts.

Targeting

Our market experience, know-how and networking allows us to test project concepts in the early stages of development or speed up leasing by directly targeting potentially interested parties. We effectively shorten the distance between developers and occupiers, generate interest and hence create the perfect conditions to close transactions in a timely and proficient manner. We also scan the market for newcomers and growth companies to ensure the success of industrial real estate developments even in economic downturns.
