Whether your company is downsizing, consolidating, or repositioning its footprint, subleasing space you no longer need can unlock major savings and flexibility. But the process is far more complex than listing space online. At The Office Advisor, we specialize in helping tenants manage this process with precision—from initial strategy to final lease execution.
What’s Involved in a Successful Sublease
Subleasing your office space isn’t just about marketing availability—it’s a full campaign that requires planning, coordination, and deep market knowledge. Here’s what the process typically includes:
Strategy & Positioning
We start by understanding your financial goals and remaining lease obligations. Then we build a disposition strategy that considers market dynamics, lease term, space condition, and ownership preferences. Sometimes this includes creative options like phased subleases, flexible deal structures, or even conversion to alternate use.
Staging & Marketing
Presentation matters. We help coordinate everything from furniture removal and cosmetic upgrades to professional photography, digital brochures, and custom marketing materials. We also assess your space’s layout, finishes, and target tenant types to determine whether light work—or a full whitebox—is needed to compete.
Targeted Outreach
Our team doesn’t wait for tenants to find your listing. We run proactive outreach campaigns to brokers and tenants, host space tours, and leverage our technology partners to source leads—including off-market opportunities others miss. We also track market comps and trends in real time, allowing us to price intelligently and adjust quickly.
Real-Time Reporting & Deal Management
From weekly updates to detailed tour feedback, we keep you informed every step of the way. We manage proposals, coordinate with your landlord, and support lease negotiations—all with your goals in mind.
Why Work with The Office Advisor
Most brokerage firms work for both landlords and tenants. We don’t.
The Office Advisor is a true tenant rep firm, so every decision we make is made with your interests in mind—not your landlord’s. Here’s what that means for you:
No Conflicts of Interest
Because we never represent landlords, our guidance is always aligned with your bottom line—whether that means structuring a sublease or finding a direct exit.
Unmatched Market Intelligence
We maintain one of the most comprehensive views of the NYC office market—including subleases, direct availabilities, and off-market opportunities. That means we’re able to match your space with real demand, not just hopeful listings.
End-to-End Execution
From financial analysis and marketing to stakeholder coordination and move-out logistics, our integrated team supports every phase of your sublease process—saving you time, money, and stress.
