What Today’s Tenants Really Want in South Fulton Retail Spaces

Intro:
Demand for retail space is rising again—but tenant expectations have changed.

Here’s what small business owners in South Fulton are actually looking for in 2025—and how you can attract the right ones, fast.

🟩 1. Walkability + Visibility

Your space needs to work from the street. That means:

• Sidewalk access

• Good signage

• Lighting and inviting glass frontage

Bonus Tip: If tenants feel unsafe or “invisible” in your location, they won’t lease.

🪑 2. Move-In Ready or Minimal Touch

Startups and boutique businesses want to open quickly. Your space should be:

• Clean, neutral, and flexible

• ADA-compliant and up to code

• Wi-Fi and HVAC ready

📄 3. Flexible Lease Options

The 5-year lease era is fading. Tenants now want:

• 1–3 year options

• Built-in growth/renewal clauses

• Low upfront costs
