Case Study: California Employers Association achieves substantial occupancy cost savings with Cresa

California Employers Association - Customer Case Study

California Employers Association (CEA), a Sacramento-based nonprofit occupying 2,399 sq. ft., wanted to renew its office lease while maximizing savings on occupancy costs. CEA engaged Cresa for Transaction Management (Cresa team: John Roth) to take advantage of favorable market conditions and renegotiate their existing lease early to lower both immediate and long-term expenses.

Cresa, led by John Roth, managed and executed the negotiations, securing a 37-month renewal at below-market rates, obtaining free months of rent, and advancing the Base Year on operating expenses. Those measures reduced CEA’s immediate cash outlay and locked in more aggressive long-term occupancy costs, delivering clear, measurable savings.
