At C-3 Commercial Real Estate Advisory, we specialize in maximizing landlords’ retail assets through strategic tenant placement and expert lease structuring.
Arnaldo Cantero III, our principal broker, brings over 15 years of retail leasing expertise, deep relationships with national, regional, and local credit tenants, and a history of executing leases across South Florida’s most competitive retail corridors. Having leased our own properties and represented institutional and private landlords, we approach every leasing assignment with an owner’s mindset.
We leverage our extensive industry relationships, including 15 years at ICSC, to secure the right tenant mix that enhances property value and long-term performance. Our direct outreach to tenant brokers and corporate real estate teams ensures maximum visibility among high-credit tenants.
Having leased our own buildings and worked on value-add retail repositioning, we understand how tenant mix, lease terms, and occupancy strategies impact long-term asset value. We negotiate leases that align with both short-term income goals and long-term property appreciation.
Experience across all retail asset types, including urban core retail, single-tenant outparcels, strip centers, and shopping centers. We craft lease terms that attract quality tenants while protecting landlord interests, ensuring stable occupancy and strong cash flow.
Successfully managed over $500 million in value-add acquisitions and executed leases across premier retail corridors in South Florida. Known for transparency, integrity, and deal-closing expertise, inspiring trust among buyers and sellers alike.
