To offer for a commercial property rental, follow these steps:
1. Submit the Offer: Ensure that every offer, counter-offer, proposal, or expression of interest is submitted to the client accurately, objectively, and as soon as possible after receiving it.
2. Record the Offer: Record all verbal or written offers and expressions of interest in writing, including the date and time of the offer, to avoid any dispute or confusion. This includes offers lower than the client's expectation.
3. Details of the Offer: Include details such as the name and contact phone number of the person making the offer, the date and time, and the amount offered or nature of the expression of interest.
4. Client's Instructions: Seek the client's instructions on how to proceed with the offers received. The decision on how to leverage offers to secure the highest offer must be left to the client.
5. Confidentiality: Maintain confidentiality of all offers, expressions of interest, and discussions with the client.
6. Multiple Offers: If multiple offers are received, seek the client's instructions on whether to close the deal with the existing higher offer or to ask other interested parties to raise their offers.
7. Documentation: Retain the written record of offers or expressions of interest and copies of all received offers/expressions of interest for a period of 1 year. Show such records to the client upon request.
8. Client's Agreement: Obtain the prior agreement of the client before advertising any property for any purpose, including rental.
By following these steps, you can ensure a smooth and professional process for offering a commercial property rental.
