Tenant and occupant surveys are one of the most underutilized yet highest-impact tools in commercial real estate. They bridge the gap between how a property performs on paper and how it’s actually experienced day to day.
While metrics tell you what is happening, surveys reveal why. They bring together two critical perspectives:
Tenants
Who evaluate value, service, and lease experience.
Occupants
Who experience comfort, functionality, and well-being firsthand.
Together, these insights create a complete view of building performance that drives smarter decisions and stronger outcomes. In fact, an academic-study published by economists at Maastricht University and MIT research shows that increasing tenant satisfaction by just one point can lead to:
8.6%
Higher Willingness to Renew
15.8%
Lower Probability of Moving Out
When leveraged effectively, surveys do more than measure satisfaction to:
- Uncover the drivers behind retention and leasing performance
- Identify opportunities to improve operations and tenant experience
- Strengthen asset value through data-backed decision making
- Support Sustainability reporting, GRESB performance, and certifications like WELL
