Alpha Lease Launches New Lease Structure in 23 U.S. Markets to Address Post-Covid Vacancy

 Phil Raglin

 Fort Worth, TX — Alpha Lease Management LLC, a national real estate investment and tenancy company with more than $45 million in transactional volume to date, has announced the launch of a new lease structure that will directly address the challenge of commercial real estate vacancy in key markets nationwide.

Currently active in 23 U.S. markets, Alpha Lease plans to expand to more than 30 top U.S. metros by the end of 2021.


“There is no bigger challenge in the operation of commercial real estate right now than vacancy,” says Phil Raglin, CEO of Alpha Lease Management.

 “With continued uncertainty surrounding the post-COVID environment, many leasing markets are not on track to fully recover until 2025.

"This presses the question: how can we solve the problem of vacancy, now? To us, the answer is simple - invest in it.”

Raglin explains that Alpha Lease’s new Tenancy on Demand program allows his firm to become a tenant-partner in nearly any vacant or underperforming space, spanning all property types.


“Through this new structure, Alpha Lease guarantees a long-term, AA-insurance-backed lease, often with terms up to 30 years, while taking on all aspects of the leased space operation,” explains Raglin.

He notes that Alpha Lease either occupies each space or subleases and manages it, always with an eye toward long-term objectives that serve the property’s best interest.

“This strategy allows us to draw upon our team’s tenured experience in the operation of retail, multifamily, office, and industrial properties while also fulfilling our mission to help properties thrive by creating environments that support businesses of all sizes while energizing the assets and their local communities,” says Raglin.

Each transaction under the new program begins with a fintech analysis using Alpha Lease’s proprietary 16,000-data-point TALGO algorithm, which calculates the risk of leasing a property.

A fee is agreed upon and paid by the landlord, who in return is guaranteed a stable long-term tenant with the expertise to operate the space and add deep value, according to Raglin.

“This structure creates an immediate increase in NOI, delivering flexibility to the owner/investor to recapitalize, reposition, or otherwise reinvest in the asset,” he says.


“Lenders benefit from the financial strength of a AA-backed tenant, while brokers benefit from the ability to bring in the Tenancy On Demand solution to absorb challenging spaces,” notes Raglin.

As a whole, Raglin notes the new program allows active investors to become passive while providing all parties with speed, transparency, and ease.

In addition to its new Tenancy on Demand lease structure, Alpha Lease specializes in CPR Leasing, through which the firm maximizes income and adds immediate value for property owners through Alpha Lease’s creative leasing of common areas, parking areas, and rooftops.

Alpha Lease can also create value to all commercial properties even those where it does not have a lease through its holistic value-add approach.

This includes items such as EV charging stations or installing energy efficient glass, among other value creation strategies that enhance the valuation of a property.

The firm is also an active property investor with a portfolio of four million square feet under ownership. Alpha Lease is actively seeking additional acquisition opportunities in top growth markets throughout the U.S.
