Know the full occupancy cost.
Estimate base rent, CAM charges and multi-year cost growth for a medical or dental office lease. Your calculations stay in your browser.
Base rent is only part of the decision.
Dental and medical tenants often focus on the quoted base rent, but operating expense reimbursements can materially change their occupancy economics. In a NNN-style lease, taxes, insurance, maintenance and other pass-through charges may be billed separately or included within an estimate.
Use this simple model to compare multi-year base rent and operating expense assumptions. All figures are annual per rentable square foot and depend on the lease's actual measurement, expense exclusions, audit rights and escalation methods.
Information to verify with the landlord
- Quoted rentable square footage versus usable square footage
- Whether the CAM estimate includes property taxes, insurance and management fees
- Caps on controllable expenses, base-year stops, and gross-up provisions
- Responsibility for roof, HVAC systems, parking lot and capital repairs
- Rent commencement, tenant improvements, free rent and separate utilities
