Tenant Representation
For most businesses, real estate is the second-largest operating expense — right behind payroll. Yet most business owners sign their lease without anyone in their corner.
At KataLYST, we represent you. Not the landlord. Not the building. You.
Here’s what most tenants don’t know: the landlord’s broker is legally obligated to work in the landlord’s best interest — not yours. When you walk into that negotiation without representation, you’re sitting across from someone who does this every single day. We level that playing field — and our services cost you nothing. Our fee is paid by the landlord.
Our clients are currently averaging 4.5 months of free rent negotiated into their leases — on top of tenant improvement allowances and flexible exit clauses that protect you if your business evolves. We don’t just negotiate the rate. We structure the entire deal around where your business is going.

What working with KataLYST looks like:
We start by understanding your business — your growth trajectory, your team, your customers, and where you need to be. Then we find the space that fits that vision, not the other way around. We handle the search, the analysis, the negotiation, and the fine print so you stay focused on running your business.
Whether you’re signing your first lease, renewing, expanding, or relocating — you deserve someone who has done the math, read the market, and has zero financial incentive to rush you into the wrong decision.
We help Austin and Des Moines business owners with:
- Lease renewals and renegotiations
- New location search and site selection
- Expansions and right-sizing
- Sublease and early termination strategy
- Lease audits — making sure you’re not overpaying right now
- Financial analysis so you know exactly what you’re signing

All tenant representation services are provided at no cost to you — our fee is paid by the landlord.
