What Fort Myers tenants and owners ask us

How much does retail space cost to lease in Fort Myers?

Rates vary meaningfully by corridor, co-tenancy, and condition — US-41 / Cleveland Avenue commands different economics than a neighborhood strip — and are generally quoted per square foot per year on a triple-net basis, with NNN charges on top. An LQ retail broker can pull current comps for your specific Lee County trade area at no cost.

Who pays the broker when I lease retail space as a tenant?

In most Fort Myers retail leases, the landlord pays the brokerage commission — including the tenant representative's share. Professional tenant representation typically costs you nothing out of pocket, while giving you comps, off-market options, and negotiating leverage the landlord's broker won't provide.
