MailAugust 2021--In this Dykema DSO 2021 Conference video, Patient Prism’s CEO, Amol Nirgudkar, says, “If you have real estate needs of any kind in the dental world, CARR Realty is definitely who you want to help you.” CARR is the nation’s leading provider of commercial real estate services for dental offices, and they are full service, at no cost to their clients.
CARR Exclusively Represents Tenants’ Interests
Tenant representation in the industry of commercial real estate is where a licensed real estate agent exclusively represents a tenant’s interests in a lease or purchase transaction. This type of representation is the opposite of landlord representation, where brokers focus solely on the needs of a landlord.
“We are, first and foremost, a commercial real estate firm that only represents tenants,” says Dan Gleissner, Western Regional Manager at CARR.
“Less than 1% of all real estate companies just represent tenants. We’re not representing landlords, so our client’s best interest is always first. Secondly, we’re focused primarily on the dental space and understand the unique needs of dental offices.”
These needs include:
- Startups – all real estate aspects of opening a new office
- Lease renewal negotiations that are favorable
- Best expansion strategies
- Relocation
- Scaling to multiple offices
- Purchasing office space
- Dental practice acquisitions
Commercial Brokers Across the Nation in Every Major Market
CARR has 150 real estate brokers across the country in every major market. With “local boots on the ground, we have market intel for specific geographic locations,” says Gleissner. That intelligence includes local rates, demographic competition, patient income, and availability, so on the de novo side, we make sure an acquisition is going to make sense.
If a DSO wants to open ten locations this year, CARR will look for the properties, analyze their situation relatively quickly, and provide options. The only hindrances to finding the locations you want would be real estate availability, the right demographics to support your new office or expansion, and if the lease terms make sense.
Couldn’t Be More Turnkey
“We do full-service negotiation for our clients,” says Gleissner. There are multiple things that need to be examined in real estate contracts and negotiated. For example, the rate, length of the lease, whether the landlord can move you if they decide to, improvement allowances, and the cost of extraordinary repairs. CARR knows the potential pitfalls and is looking for them to protect its clients. “We know what not to negotiate on, as well, so we don’t blow the deal,” says Gleissner.
CARR Realty does lease administration to track your lease date, know the appropriate time to reach out to the landlord, assess the option period, and manage the process.
Everything Is Free to the Tenant
“We're the only firm that does all of this nationally, and we're at no cost to our clients because commissions are paid by landlords in real estate,” says Gleissner. “The listing broker who is representing the landlord has a commission agreement. We split that commission agreement with the listing broker, so adding us doesn't cost anything to the deal because that commission's already set aside, and we're never going to charge our clients. So, everything is free, which sounds too good to be true, but it absolutely is.”
