**what? **
* I advised my client to revert at a 10 yr lease w/a break in the 5th yr with 10 months rent free (initial offer: 5 year, 3rd year break)
**Why? **
* There was high levels of demand in the market
* the building was position well in the market against its competitiors, being located near the main station, newly refurbished, close to amenities and had an external car parking structure.
* And considering my client had invested capex into the refurbishment, it was in their interest to secure a longer term, to increase the term certain.
