Award-winning
Commercial Estate Agency

Victorian seaside towns have always held a strong emotional pull for both locals and visitors. As someone who works closely with businesses navigating growth, brand presence, and commercial strategy and having spent time in Sorrento for a number of summers now, I’ve had time to analyse how retail thrives in this coastal location (currently full retail occupation by the way!) Suburbs like Sorrento demonstrate a particularly resilient form of retail ecology—one that thrives on a balanced mix of uses, seasonal versatility, and strong anchor tenants.

When a commercial lease ends, one of the most common—and costly—sources of tension between landlords and tenants is the “make-good” clause. At Miglic Dean, we’ve helped countless clients navigate this process, and we know that what’s written in the lease is only half the story. The other half is about timing, communication, and strategic foresight.
