What Is a Tenant Improvement and Why Is It Essential? 

Commercial leases rarely come with spaces that are ready for your move-in. Even the most attractive property listings typically require customization to match your brand, your workflow, and building code compliance. That’s where Tenant Improvement Construction in Las Vegas comes in. 

Tenant Improvement (TI) refers to customized alterations a tenant makes to a leased space.  These changes can be as simple as reconfiguring walls and lighting or as complex as installing new HVAC systems or complete architectural overhauls. Whether the lease requires the landlord to pay, the tenant, or a negotiated split, the process must be efficient and up to code. 

And that’s where SSA Architecture delivers unmatched expertise.
