Continental runs a large, multi-tenant portfolio with solid building conditions and fair tenant-mix curation, but tenants consistently report slower maintenance turnaround and mixed experiences at renewal.
Continental's initial renewal offers are meaningfully above market for roughly 1 in 4 tenants. Those who come prepared with comparable transactions and RFP leverage typically close inside 10% of market. Those who don't, don't.
A sample of what current and former Continental tenants have said, verified against active or closed leases. Names withheld.
"Building itself is excellent — clean, well-lit, good dock equipment. Service requests can sit for a week before anyone looks at them. We renewed after a painful negotiation where their first number was 18% over market."
"Neighbour tenant mix is actually great — no nuisance operations, everyone minds the courts. OpEx reconciliation is slow to arrive and hard to read."
"Honest reps on the leasing side, very straightforward TI negotiation. Property management is a weaker link — two different PMs in my 3 years."
"Renewal offer was so far above market I moved. No negotiation at all. Left a good building over it."
