What Tech Ready Building Means to Building Owners—Tenant Tech Boosts Leasing

Connectivity has replaced parking in prospective tenant’s top-3 CRE office space priorities. Studies show tenant tech needs are driving them to seek and sign longer leases with buildings capable of meeting those needs: high-level connectivity, redundancy, certifications, infrastructure management, tenant tech assistance, Internet of Things devices, and smart building technology.

Connectivity and tenant tech focus are becoming that key differentiator in a competitive environment. And buildings with dedicated support for tenant tech needs are major market attractions. Cloud services, VoIP phones, BYoD policies and a rapidly expanding Internet of Things are at the center of everyday business operations today. While smart buildings traditionally offered benefits to building management, they provided less incentive to prospective tenants.
