Key Factors to Consider When Choosing a Retail Space for Lease

When you’re looking to give your business a storefront, there are a lot of decisions to be made. The first choice is, of course, location. You’ll have to decide whether your business would operate better in the heart of the city or if it is more likely to thrive in a suburban setting.

How much space do you think you will need? A smaller, more specialized business may find a mall space to be more than accommodating, but if you’re looking to set up a business like a diner, car wash, or furniture store, a freestanding space or big box retail space in a shopping center may be more appropriate.

Some properties also go the extra mile to become more environmentally friendly, which is often indicated by a LEED certification. The Houston real estate market is home to 1 LEED-certified retail building(s). This kind of space represents 0.17% of the city’s total retail real estate.
