You should have a lawyer and a commercial broker help you deal with Tarantino who thrives on taking advantage of small business owners. You need to factor in an extra cost of professional fees to your lease rate when comparing costs to other Lessors. You will absolutely need professional assistance dealing with Tarantino.

Be sure to take the time to well document the condition of the space prior to your move in. Tarantino will give you the false feeling of a working relationship while they are cashing your rent checks, but when it comes time to get your deposit back that is a whole different story. They will look for ways to not refund your money. Tarantino has a distorted view of the key clause "normal wear and tear". They basically hoped we would not ask for our deposit back. Only after 60 days when I had to prompt them did they suddenly develop a list of defects that are completely bogus.

If you don't have documentation that there were defects when you moved in Tarantino will hang them on you. Don't let them lead you into a false sense of security as they did to us.

During our 6 year experience as a lessee we paid rent early or on time to perfection. We put up with leaking roofs, miss numbered suites, parking problems, and general lack of responsiveness to concerns. They couldn't figure out a roof leak until I showed them where weeds 3 feet tall were growing out of sediment collected in a gutter.

The maintenance group at Tarantino is completely unprofessional, and they have no problem insulting your intelligence. They will cancel appointments and then demand immediate attention on their schedule. They could care less that you have business to run.

Tarantino should be your last option for space. If you lease with them it would be wise to have a professional thoroughly document all phases of your dealings with Tarantino.

I've been in business since 1988. Dealing with Tarantino has been the worst experience ever.
