Background Property Overview Asset Type: Single-tenant industrial building Building Size: 10,240 square feet Lot Size: 35,719 square feet Location: Adams County, Colorado Client: Private owner seeking to optimize revenue, recover lost income, and protect property rights Our firm was engaged to provide full-service property management for this industrial asset. Standard management services include routine operations such as tenant coordination, maintenance oversight, rent collection, financial reporting, and compliance with local regulations. These are covered under our regular management fee structure. However, the engagement quickly evolved to address several high-impact opportunities and challenges that went beyond day-to-day management. These additional efforts—negotiating a major lease renewal, , and assisting with a property boundary/easement dispute—required specialized expertise and time, and were therefore handled as separate, value-added services outside the scope of regular management fees. Key Challenges and Achievements Lease Renewal Negotiation with Significant Rate Increases The existing lease was approaching expiration in a rising industrial market. We led negotiations with the long-term tenant, leveraging current market data on comparable industrial rents in Adams County and surrounding areas. Through strategic discussions emphasizing the property’s location advantages, building condition, and limited available inventory, we secured a multi-year renewal with substantial increases to the base lease rate. This directly boosted the owner’s net operating income (NOI) and enhanced long-term asset value.Note: Lease negotiation and brokerage services for renewals or new leases are typically outside the scope of standard property management fees and were billed separately as a specialized service. We prepared detailed reconciliations, documented variances, and worked collaboratively with the tenant to resolve discrepancies.. Ongoing improvements to the NNN budgeting and reconciliation process ensured accurate future billing and minimized disputes.Note: Comprehensive historical audits often exceed routine accounting included in standard management fees. This was performed as an additional service. Resolution of Property Boundary and Easement Issue A neighboring property owner raised concerns regarding a shared boundary line and an existing easement (likely for access or utilities), creating potential risks to the property’s usability and marketability. We coordinated with the owner, reviewed title documents and surveys, and facilitated discussions with the adjacent owner. By clarifying the legal descriptions, confirming recorded easements, and negotiating a mutually agreeable resolution (avoiding escalation to litigation), we protected the property’s integrity and prevented any operational disruptions. This matter was resolved efficiently without court involvement. Note: Boundary disputes, easement negotiations, and related legal coordination fall outside standard property management scopes and were handled as a separate consulting service, in collaboration with legal professionals. Results and Client Impact Achieved a strong lease renewal with meaningful base rent increases, positioning the property for improved cash flow and higher valuation. Resolved a potential boundary/easement conflict amicably, safeguarding the asset against future encroachments or disputes. Strengthened the overall management framework with better NNN tracking and proactive oversight. The owner benefited from our team’s ability to go beyond routine management—delivering strategic, high-value outcomes that directly increased revenue and protected the asset. While core property management (tenant relations, maintenance, collections, reporting) remained covered under the standard fee, the specialized lease work and boundary/easement assistance were provided as additional services to maximize results. This case demonstrates how proactive, tailored property management in Colorado’s competitive industrial market can uncover and capture hidden value for owners.
