Suite Deal: The Smart Landlord’s Guide to Leasing Real Estate

Suite Deal can help accelerate your career, increase your income, and drive property value.

WINNER, 2019 ROBINSON BOOK AWARD, National Association of Real Estate Editors

Better lease deals increase value and profitability, especially compounded year after year! During my twenty-five year real estate career, I developed core strategies described in this book and now I teach them at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business. Early on, I learned how to apply psychology principles to property tours. Years of leasing taught me how to craft and negotiate winning proposals. Finally, I increased property value and my own compensation with successful tenant retention. This book amasses years of experience in an accessible, story-telling format that discusses the process - and successful strategies - of leasing and renting space.
