Garrett Bauman (Yours Truly ;-} )
What people say...

Dave L., Real Estate Broker
I've seen Garrett negotiate dozens of leases with some of the largest most intimidating and hard-to-deal-with landlords.
His commitment to his clients and his knowledge and skills have regularly delivered fantastic deals and leases for his clients.

Abdel B., Store Owner
Mr Bauman was patient and kind with us. He explained what he was doing and why, to get our approval. We could feel he took his knowledge of what it is to be a small business owner and retailer and applied it to giving us amazing advice. Among other things, he got the Landlord to agree to a sizeable tenant improvement allowance that we never imagined to even ask, less get!

Janet C., Store Owner
We really had our minds set on opening a store in the retail center near our house. After reviewing that site, Garrett showed us that traffic there and location were subpar. He identified another store location 2.6 miles further, with better exposure and more traffic. We followed Garrett's recommendation and have no doubt this was the right choice.
About me
My parents were in the restaurant/casino business.. As a young man, I was not comfortable with my spoon-fed life and joined the Marine Corps.. Following 2 tours overseas and duty at the FBI Academy at Quantico Marine Base, I returned home to work in the family business.
After getting burnt out in the restaurant industry, I spent 12 years at a commercial real estate company as both a Landlord and Representative of some of the largest Retail brands.
In 1997, I resigned after my wife was diagnosed with inoperable cervical cancer and given only 2 months to live. We turned it into 2 years, during which time we traveled the world seeking out alternative therapies. Our bond and hopes grew stronger than ever but in the end we had to say our good byes and she left for heaven
I then decided to take all that I learned representing some of the countries top retailers and opened my own retail business in 2002, What started as a hobby on Ebay turned into 5 brick and mortar stores. Unfortunately, after 12 amazing years, the industry shifted, it was hard to compete with the internet giants and I had to close my doors.
I then went to work for a company where I oversaw more than 175 stores around the country, I also helped develop about 70 of them dealing with store development, training, design and lease negotiations.
After 6 years in this position, my entrepreneurial spirit won, seeing that my skills would be able to make a tremendous difference for struggling business owners, so I resigned in April 2021 and I am now offering my services to you.
My unparalleled experience as both a former restaurateur, clothing retailer, commercial broker, and Marine is now available to help other small businesses, retail stores and restaurants, keep their doors opens and also creating the best case scenario for opening a new business.
I am also a cancer survivor now 5 years cancer-free. I know how precious life is and how difficult it can be.
I can promise you my services will always have your best interest in mind and I promise to provide you with savings that will dwarf any of my service fees.
I am excited to meet you and work with you!
