In leasing “NO FEE” means that tenants don’t pay any commissions to their brokers.

What is “the Base Rent”?

The Base Rent is the amount of money that a tenant pays as rent in the first year of a lease. It doesn’t include utilities, escalations, concessions, surcharges, etc. The Base Rent is normally presented as the price per rentable square foot per year. For example, if the Base Rent is $50/RSF/year, it means that the monthly Base Rent on a 2,000-square-footer is $8,333 (calculated as follows: (2,000RSF x $50/RSF/year) /12 months = $8,333).

What is “the Loss Factor”?

The Loss Factor is the difference between the actual (usable) square footage of a space and the rentable square footage of the space. Basically, landlords add proportionate share of common areas (lobby, hallways, bathrooms, elevators, staircases, and so on) to the actual square footage of a space. The loss factor ranges from 20% to 50% and you should keep it in mind when you are making your leasing decisions. Our brokers will help you compare apples to apples, not apples to oranges.

How much does it cost to lease a medical office space in New York City?

The price depends on many variables such as location, building, landlord, space size, lease term, buildout, vacancy rate, your broker’s negotiating skills, et cetera. For example, a top-notch 2,000-square-footer may cost you $7,000 in Downtown, $9,000 by Grand Central, and $12,000 on the 57th Street. Our brokers’ deep knowledge of the inventory will help you make the right choice.

What is "the Escalation”?

In leasing “Escalation” means increase of rent. There are several different types of escalations and in 90% of instances you will see two or three of them in your lease.
· Fixed annual escalation toward operation expenses. Usually it is 2.5%-3% per year.
· CPI (Consumer Price Index) escalation. It is used sometimes instead of the Fixed escalation
· Real Estate Tax escalation. A Real Estate Tax is normally included in a Base Rent; however, it is common for a landlord to pass on the real estate tax increases (over a Base Year) to a tenant. The tenant’s proportionate share of the building and Base Year must be specified in the lease and can be easily verified via public records.
· Bump. In long-term leases it is common to see a pre-negotiated jump in rent after a certain year on top of the Fixed annual escalation and Real Estate Tax increases. For example, your 10-year lease can stipulate that your Base Rent will jump up by $5 per square foot after year 5.
· Porter’s Wage escalation. This escalation is correlated with the cost of servicing the building. It is a rare escalation, but some landlords still use it.

Is it better to lease or buy?

It depends on your situation. For most NYC businesses it makes more sense to lease their spaces, because leasing is fast, flexible, not as expensive as purchasing, allows easy growth, and often is the only available option. For established and stabilized businesses (such as medical offices, for example) it may be a good choice to buy their offices for many reasons: investing and creating of equity, owner’s control, appreciation in the long-run, protection against tricky lease clauses, tax benefits, etc.
