The way we work has shifted. Today’s tenants want spaces that reflect their brand, support their culture and adapt as they grow.
That’s where customisation and personalisation come in.
A 2024 Savills UK report highlighted that occupiers now see office space as a “powerful tool to cultivate, reinforce, and sustain a companyβs culture.”
What’s the difference?
π‘ Customisation is about designing or modifying the space to fit a tenant’s needs. Think layout, services, or amenity access.
π¨ Personalisation is about giving tenants the freedom to make the space feel like their own. Branding, breakout zones, the little touches.
Why it works for multi-let buildings
In a multi-let building, no two tenants are alike. Giving them the ability to shape their space makes your offer more attractive, and much harder to walk away from.
It also activates the building. The more tenants feel seen, the more likely they are to engage with the wider space and community.
Tenants want flexibility
Flexibility is now an expectation.
Tenants want:
π Flexible terms
π Adaptable layouts
π Optional services they can dial up or down
This level of agility supports growth and creates stronger tenant-landlord partnerships over time.
The retention impact
When tenants feel connected to their space, they’re more likely to stay. Customisation and personalisation lead to:
π Greater tenant satisfaction
π Increased brand pride
π Higher likelihood of renewal
π‘ Buildings with flexible lease terms see around a 20% boost in lease renewal rates
The competitive edge
Buildings that prioritise experience over aesthetics are the ones standing out.
By embedding customisation and personalisation into your leasing strategy, you’re creating longer-term value, happier tenants, and higher retention β all while setting your building apart from the rest.
