In this episode of Startup Unscripted, hosts Michael D'Incio and John Bertagni wrap up Shark Week with a bang by diving deep into one of the most overlooked yet critical components of launching or acquiring a dental practice: The Lease
Joining them is Andrew from Crown Tenant Advisors, a seasoned real estate expert who specializes in dental and healthcare spaces.
From the complexities of assignment clauses to real-life horror stories where a bad lease torpedoed a transition, this episode is packed with raw insights and practical advice. Andrew breaks down why working with a healthcare-specific real estate advisor can mean the difference between thriving and barely surviving—and why landlords’ fine print could be your biggest liability.
Expect:
- Expert breakdowns of lease assignment, term lengths, and lender requirements
- A behind-the-scenes look at site selection strategies
- Why demographics matter—but street-level insight matters more
- How to frame rural opportunities for hesitant dentists
If you're planning a startup, acquisition, or just want to future-proof your practice's real estate, this one is a must-listen.
Andrew Riepe, Founder and President of Crown Tenant Advisors, spent his entire commercial real estate career working with healthcare clients. He started Crown Tenant Advisors with a focus on representing the needs of tenants and buyers in the healthcare industry.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
