Testimonial
Dear Gary Poelstra and AUSPL Staff: I just wanted to thank you for the invaluable help that you provided to me for my lease negotiations with USPS®. Thanks to the Leased Postal Facilities Report that you provided, I was able to make an extremely educated analysis and evaluation of the proper fair market value renewal rental amount for my Post Office™ facility in Ohio. It brought to my attention the previous lease's rental rates were far below what the fair market value should have been for the facility; therefore, I was able to see that the Postal Service's™ initial offer of a simple inflation increase was just not appropriate. As a result of your assistance, I was able to negotiate without too much difficulty a five-year lease renewal with a rent increase and a five-year renewal option with an additional increase for the building. This was the first time I had ever negotiated my own lease with them. The information you provided and the substantial personal time that you took to talk to me about the proper approach and comparable rentals helped me feel that I negotiated a very fair lease at the proper rental value and smoothed over my anxiety.
