FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Our comprehensive agency leasing services include strategic asset analysis, property positioning and marketing, tenant targeting and screening, lease negotiation, and ongoing market intelligence. We specialise in navigating South Korea’s Commercial Building Lease Protection Act requirements, deposit structures, and renewal rights to optimise landlord returns while ensuring regulatory compliance.

We leverage deep market knowledge of Seoul’s distinct submarkets, from CBD and YBD to GBD to position properties strategically. Our approach includes comprehensive market analysis, targeted tenant identification, property-specific marketing campaigns, and relationship-driven outreach to credit-worthy tenants who align with your investment objectives and asset profile.

Key considerations include understanding tenant renewal rights (up to 10 years under current regulations), rent increase limitations (5% cap), deposit requirements, and submarket dynamics. Landlords must also consider building specifications, proximity to transportation hubs, and tenant mix strategies that align with Grade A office standards and emerging workplace trends.

We develop comprehensive leasing strategies that balance immediate occupancy goals with long-term value creation. This includes tenant diversification, strategic lease structuring within Korea’s regulatory framework, proactive renewal management, and market positioning that enhances asset competitiveness across economic cycles.

Green leasing incorporates sustainability clauses that promote energy efficiency, waste management, and data sharing between landlords and tenants. In an evolving ESG landscape, green leases can command premium rents, improve building performance, and align with government sustainability initiatives while supporting both parties’ environmental goals through shared incentives and responsibilities.
