Real estate is about more than just buildings—it's about people.

For the workplaces of today, offices are more than where employees are housed; it’s where the life of a company is lived. As the fulcrum between investment goals and occupancy experience, we stay immersed in every aspect of our buildings to outperform at both ends.

Tenant-centered operations from an owner's perspective.

As owners and operators of a 17 million square foot portfolio, we understand the objectives of an owner – because we are one. Our asset and property management teams design a strategic business plan unique to each property – a plan that starts with ensuring the tenant experience in our buildings is second to none. On behalf of our owners, we identify opportunities for revenue enhancement while balancing cost control and risk—always keeping an eye on the final sale.

Unico brings the same philosophy, focus, commitment to customer service, and talent to the management of third-party properties as it does to its own portfolio.

 

Unico was named 2016 Landlord of the Year by the commercial real estate community of Denver and Boulder.

Driving Value

It’s simple. Increased revenue, coupled with lower expenses, drives higher asset values. Yet most typical property managers focus entirely on expense control. Our teams are revenue-focused first – identifying unique strategies to drive more revenue out of the asset. We don’t ignore cost control, however. All over our portfolio, we have demonstrated a consistent ability to manage costs without sacrificing anything about the tenant experience.

 

Revenue Strategies

  • Developing memorable, tenant-focused amenity spaces
  • Obsessing over tenant satisfaction and renewals
  • Designing spaces that drive leasing velocity
  • Identifying new sources of revenue for under-utilized areas of a building
  • Investigating building re-measurements to gain additional square footage
  • Uncovering opportunities to drive additional revenue from parking
