What to Ask in a Site Tour (That Most Tenants Miss)

Touring a property? Great. But most tenants walk through with rose-colored

glasses—and miss critical details that affect daily operations.

Here’s what we tell our clients:

Visit during peak traffic hours

Ask about HVAC age, zones, and maintenance

Check loading areas, security systems, restrooms

Interview nearby tenants for unfiltered feedback

We once advised a tenant who almost signed on a space with a beautiful lobby—but no

freight elevator. They were in logistics. That elevator saved them $80,000 in retrofits.

Don’t just tour. Test.
