On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes is joined live from Thrive Live in Las Vegas by Eric Pook, president of Cirrus Consulting Group, North America's leading dental office lease negotiation firm. Eric shares eye-opening insights into how dentists—despite being the most reliable tenants—are frequently overpaying for their leases due to lack of awareness, leverage, and negotiation expertise.
They explore the most common pitfalls dentists face in lease agreements, including missed renewal deadlines, dangerous personal guarantees, inflated tenant improvement allowances, and how landlords quietly strip away leverage from unsuspecting practice owners. Eric offers a crash course in lease strategy for both startups and acquisitions, explaining why the best time to engage a lease expert is far earlier than most assume. Whether you're starting, growing, or exiting your practice, this conversation could save you hundreds of thousands.
