TenantBase, the technology enabled office space brokerage firm built for tenants, has announced recent additions to the company's real estate team in Nashville to meet the needs of the growing market and demand for its services. Tad Wood was appointed as Principal of the Nashville market, overseeing all real estate activities, and Brents Herron was brought on as an Advisor to work directly with local businesses. Wood and Herron join Kailey Faber, Director and early hire at TenantBase, to round out the real estate team serving Nashville businesses.

"We are excited to add Brents and Tad to our existing team during this period of growth for the company," says Mike Zei, Co-Founder. "We have built technology to enhance the experience for a business trying to find and lease office space, but we firmly believe in the importance of dedicated and knowledgeable real estate professionals to advise and support in this process."

Wood will focus on ensuring the quality of the real estate advisory services provided by TenantBase to local businesses. "Tad provides the experience and local relationships to help get the most out of our Advisors and continue to evolve our work with tenants in Nashville," says Zei. Wood joins TenantBase after a seven-plus year role at Healthcare Realty Trust and work for Nashville based Horrell Company.

Serving as an Advisor, Herron is a key point of contact (along with Faber) for new businesses using TenantBase to find and lease office space in Nashville. "Brents and Kailey play a critical role for our growth by serving as the face of the company in Nashville as well as relaying customer feedback for software improvements," Zei says.

Following acceptance into EvoNexus, a technology incubator in Irvine, CA, TenantBase has planned expansion for the Orange County, CA market by the end of 2015 and has key software upgrades set to be completed on the same timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does TenantBase's technology-enabled platform simplify the process of finding office space for businesses?

TenantBase simplifies the office search by reversing the traditional commercial real estate model. Instead of businesses spending weeks searching listings and contacting landlords, tenants begin by sharing their space requirements, including location, size, budget, and timing. TenantBase’s technology then matches those needs with qualified local tenant-representation brokers and relevant market options.

What role do local tenant representation brokers play in TenantBase's commercial real estate leasing process?

Local tenant-representation brokers provide market expertise, advocate for tenant interests, and manage the leasing process from start to finish—space selection, negotiations, and concessions—helping reduce risk and improve outcomes.

How can I use TenantBase's blog to compare different commercial real estate leasing options?

The blog breaks down lease structures (Gross, Net, Modified Gross) and explains how costs like taxes, insurance, and CAM charges affect total occupancy expenses so readers can compare trade-offs.

What insights does the Partner Broker Highlight section provide for businesses searching for office space for rent?

Partner Broker Highlights showcase trusted tenant-rep brokers, their experience, and advice—building transparency and trust while sharing negotiation and market insights.

How does TenantBase tailor the leasing experience to help businesses find the right office space fit online?

TenantBase combines technology with local tenant advisors to customize searches based on headcount, growth plans, budget, and timing—streamlining discovery and helping teams lease space that fits operational and financial goals.
