Coordination

Landlord & Property Manager Coordination

Most TI projects involve three parties with competing priorities: you need to open on time, the landlord needs their building rules followed, and the city needs inspections passed. We manage all three.

  • Review lease exhibit and TI allowance scope before we write a single line of our own scope
  • Coordinate contractor insurance certificates and building access requirements
  • Submit permit drawings and manage city inspection scheduling
  • Provide landlord with closeout package including as-built scope summary
  • Track punchlist against landlord walkthrough requirements, not just our own standard

Common Questions

What's the difference between white box, vanilla shell, and full finish-out?

White box (or vanilla shell) means the landlord delivers a raw but demised space: studs, concrete floor, HVAC stub-outs, electrical panel, and restroom rough-ins. A full finish-out adds everything a tenant needs to operate: flooring, ceilings, lighting, paint, millwork, and trade finishes. We handle both ends of that spectrum.

How do tenant improvement allowances (TIAs) work with your scope?

We review the landlord's TIA terms, align your scope to what's eligible, and help you understand where you're responsible for costs beyond the allowance. We also coordinate directly with property managers to make sure permit submissions and inspection sign-offs don't delay your timeline.

What if I don't have final floor plans yet?

We can visit the space and provide a budget range based on your desired layout and finishes before plans are finalized. Once drawings are approved, we produce a written scope. Many clients use the budget range to help finalize their lease negotiation.

Can you coordinate directly with the property manager?

Yes. That's part of our standard process. We gather building rules (hours of operation for contractors, loading restrictions, floor protection requirements, insurance certificates) at the beginning and manage the relationship through final inspection.

Mansfield, TX

Doctors' Office Reception & Check-In Rebuild

Reception rebuilt in a doctors' office in Mansfield. The glass-enclosed check-in window came out, the openings were reframed with painted mullions, and the counter was rebuilt with a dark wood slat front under a light stone-look top, mitered and returned down the end of the run. A lower counter section sits at the end of the run beside a pass-through to the adjoining room.
