RENT IS NOT THE ONLY FACTOR TO CONSIDER!
| ||||||||||||||||
| Do you know that monthly parking costs can add $0.20/SF up to more than $0.70/SF to your monthly expenses? Do you validate for visitor parking? Make sure you consider any charges for tenant and visitor parking to your overall costs. Does the building have enough parking for your needs? |
|
| When is $2.73/SF not more expensive than $2.50/SF? If you lease a 1,000 usable square feet (USF - actual size of space), a typical office building will add on an additional 10-20% to account for the load factor (the lobby, bathroom, common hallways, etc.). Therefore, a building using a 20% load factor would lease the space based on 1,200 rentable square feet (RSF = USF + load factor). Therefore, a space renting for $2.50/RSF would be $3,000/mo. A building using a 10% load factor (1,100 RSF) with a $2.73/RSF rental rate would actually be offering you the same size space at the same price per month! |
|
| Do you work late hours and/or on weekends? Most buildings charge an hourly rate of $50/hour and up to use the HVAC (air conditioning) after 6 pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekend. A modified gross lease that is separately metered for utilities or has package A/C units can be a huge savings. |
|
| Are you considering a sublease? If it is a short term sublease at a below market rate, do you know how much the rent will increase when sublease term expires or if landlord will allow you to remain in the space after the sublease term? Should you negotiate to extend the lease now or waiting until the sublease is about to expire? Is the Sublessor financially stable? What happens if the other tenant stops paying their rent or declares bankruptcy? |

“Thanks very much for your exceptional service in finding our office space for Goode Family Productions, LLC.
The many options you provided and your knowledge of the properties were instrumental in finding the ideal environment for our show.
Given the many challenges our office presented (a very large space, in a premium building, close to producers’ homes, and for a relatively short term lease), I’m particularly impressed that you found such a great space.
Thanks also for sharing your valuable expertise in negotiating our lease. I appreciate your help in protecting our interests, and in navigating the complicated document.”
