Tenant-only commercial real estate advisory

Commercial Real Estate Advisory for Healthcare & Dental Businesses

Tenant-focused representation for healthcare, dental, and service-based operators across Chicago and surrounding suburbs — from site selection to lease negotiation.

What +CRE Does

+CRE provides tenant-only commercial real estate advisory for healthcare, dental, and service-based businesses in Chicago and surrounding suburbs.


We help business owners evaluate locations, compare options, and negotiate leases with long-term strategy in mind — without landlord conflicts or sales pressure.

Who We Serve

We specialize in tenant representation for businesses with specific space, zoning, and operational requirements — where real estate decisions directly impact long-term performance.

How we work with tenants

Our advisory process is structured, transparent, and designed to align real estate decisions with how your business actually operates.

Understand the Business

We start by understanding your operations, growth plans, space requirements, and constraints before discussing locations or listings.

Evaluate Options

We analyze markets, locations, and opportunities based on data, access, zoning, and long-term suitability — not just availability.

Negotiate Strategically

We structure and negotiate lease terms with your long-term flexibility, risk exposure, and future options in mind.

Support Long-Term Decisions

Our involvement doesn’t stop at signing. We advise on renewals, relocations, and future planning as your business evolves.

Common Situations We Handle

Every commercial real estate decision starts with a challenge.
Here’s where we typically help clients.

Your lease is expiring in 12-18 months

You need to decide: renew, relocate, or renegotiate. We help you understand your leverage and explore all options before you're under time pressure.

You need to understand buildout costs

Dental buildouts are expensive. We help you accurately budget, negotiate TI dollars from landlords, and find spaces that reduce your out-of-pocket costs.

You're opening your first practice location

The commercial leasing process is overwhelming. We translate the jargon, explain what's market-standard, and protect you from expensive mistakes.

You're not sure which suburbs make sense

Naperville vs Downers Grove? Northbrook vs Highland Park? We provide demographic data, competition analysis, and rent comparisons.

You're expanding to a second (or third) location

Growth is exciting but risky. We help you choose the right markets, avoid cannibalizing existing locations, and negotiate better terms with multi-site leverage.

You're stuck in a bad lease situation

High rent? Restrictive clauses? We review your options: assignment, sublease, early termination negotiation, or riding it out strategically.
