What We Do

Fortune 500 Real Estate Expertise. Built for Franchise  & Licensed Owners.

Every service is designed to protect your capital, strengthen your position, and close deals that work in your favor—not the landlord's.

Level the Playing Field Against Institutional Landlords.

Commercial landlords and their brokers negotiate leases every day. Most franchise or licensed owners do it once or twice in a lifetime. That asymmetry costs you—in rent, in terms, in flexibility. VanDana levels the field with the same institutional-grade strategy used by national retail chains and Fortune 500 real estate departments. She will work to protect your capital, find ways to shorten your buildout, and launch on time.

01

Lease Negotiation

Stop leaving money on the table.

We negotiate directly on your behalf—rent abatement, tenant improvement allowances, renewal options, co-tenancy clauses, and exit provisions. Every line of your lease is a negotiation. We make sure you win the ones that matter.

Deliverables

Full lease review and redline
Rent and TI allowance negotiation
Renewal and termination option structuring
Co-tenancy and exclusivity clause review
Personal guarantee limitation strategy
02

Site Selection

Location is strategy, not luck.

We analyze trade areas, traffic patterns, co-tenancy, demographic data, and competitive positioning to identify sites that give your franchise the best chance to perform. We eliminate the guesswork and the costly mistakes.

Deliverables

Trade area and demographic analysis
Traffic count and visibility assessment
Competitive landscape mapping
Co-tenancy and anchor tenant evaluation
Site scoring and ranked shortlist
03

LOI & Lease Review

Know what you're signing before you sign it.

A Letter of Intent sets the terms that follow you through the entire lease. We review, advise, and negotiate your LOI before you're locked in—and conduct a full lease audit to flag provisions that could cost you years down the road.

Deliverables

LOI review and negotiation strategy
Full lease audit and risk assessment
Plain-language summary of key terms
Flagged provisions with recommended responses
Comparison to market-standard terms
