Frequently Ask Questions

What is Corporate Services?

Corporate Services refers to all of the functions involved in managing and company’s business real estate. Some specific aspects of Corporate Services include; Site Selection, Lease Negotiation, Transaction Management, Financial Analysis & Forecasting, Space Planning & Construction Management as well as Corporate Relocation or Move Management.

How can Corporate Services save me money?

Foresite Corporate Services Group can save companies money in several ways. Engaging Foresite CSG reduces or eliminates the costs associated with an in-house Corporate Real Estate Department. By effectively managing an entire portfolio of locations, we can make across the board changes that impact the company’s bottom line. We do this through “right-sizing” the portfolio, ensuring the company is leasing no more space than is needed today while strategically planning for tomorrow’s growth. We often renegotiate existing leases to achieve this and implement smarter space standards going forward.
Foresite also saves clients money by reducing operating expenses through thoughtful lease negotiation as well as performing Operating Expense Audits to keep landlords honest and not leave any money on the table.
Foresite also crafts exit strategies into every lease we negotiate so that should the worse happen, our clients aren’t left on the hook for costs they could have avoided. We even market our client’s space for sublease if the worst-case scenario occurs.

How much does Corporate Services cost?

Foresite’s services are available on a consulting basis as well and depending on the client’s real estate portfolio, some data management charges may apply for Lease Administration services.

CHALLENGE: The primary challenge for this space relocation was mostly driven by economics. Office rental rates in the suburban Washington state submarket where the company leased space for their writers had appreciate greatly in the five years since their last lease renewal and they were experiencing sticker shock from the rental rates then prevailing in the market...

RESULTS: After performing multiple Market Availability Studies in the months leading up to their lease expiration date, we recommended to Corporate that they allow the lease for their current space to expire and not relocate to new space. The results were very happy employees and a total cost savings to the company of about $300,000.
