City Grid Real Estate

City Grid Real Estate, a full service commercial real estate brokerage and property marketing firm, optimizing commercial real estate transactions and representing commercial tenants in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.  We have helped dozens of building owners sell their commercial property and hundreds of retail tenants identify the right space for their needs, from restaurants to gyms to theaters, we help you evaluate neighborhoods based on actual metrics with the latest property location and site analysis technology, and understand the needs of retailers and building owners in finding the perfect match.

​

Commercial property sales require a strong marketing presence on a local, national and international level.  More than 90% small commercial buildings are sold to local real estate investors, requiring a well-developed network of Washington DC's investor groups.  Using ownership records, asset purchasing patterns, and constant networking, we track the DC area's investors and direct market intensively to follow asset purchases and ensure continuous exposure in the competitive real estate market.

​​

National and international purchasers make up the majority of larger assets purchases, where national networks and database memberships become crucial commercial property marketing techniques, and where our internet marketing techniques ensure we have a solid presence in front of commercial purchasers. 

​

The most crucial element of commercial real estate marketing is the agent that can make or break the sale. A top agent is available, responsive, and able to show your office or retail building the 100th time with the same energy as the first, and never give up.  A knowledge of the real estate market is essential, but the ability to persuade, educate and follow through are the most essential techniques in selling your property.

Tenants

Our tenant representation is almost certainly the most rewarding segment of our practice.  Helping a client go from concept to execution involves an immeasurable amount of steps that involve legal, technical, social, emotional and financial challenges.  Our commitment is to be there at each step of the leasing process, guiding and assisting tenants by offering construction contacts, reviewing leases, researching demographics, scouting sites and offering commercial real estate industry insight throughout.  Once the day to open has arrived, we offer no-fee marketing services, social media and promotion simply as our commitment to helping our retail clients succeed.  As fellow small business operators, we get it.

​

So whether you're opening a restaurant, fitness center, market, theater, apparel store - or any type of retail operation, call us for a free consultation about how we can help you successfully identify a retail location that's right for your business.

​

As you can see from our more recent tenant client list, we have represented many of the Washington DC area's most successful restaurants and retailers - from the smallest start-up to large national chains - helping them start and grow their retail brand in DC's competitive retail scene.  With a legal background in corporate law, and commitment to our clients, we can ensure we negotiate the best possible terms on every deal.
