Tenants & Landlords feel that no one is in their corner for them - Especially when Real Estate Brokers or Real Estate Agents are Dual representatives, representing both parties simultaneously, a huge conflict when Due Diligence to properly Underwrite Rental Value to ensure Optimal Net Effective Rent Occupancy Cost Analysis & Research for the lease is not undertaken in order to limit risk.

Major Real Estate Appraisal Rent Issues as All Items are Negotiable, Greatly Affecting Lease Payments over the term: There are many items to consider as part of renting space:

1) Base Rent: Just the monthly rent being paid, is this Below vs. At vs. Above Market Level Lease Rates?

2) Additional NNN's or CAM's: On top of base rent, what are extra Operating Expense Pass Thru's that tenants pay to landlords for the proportionate or pro rata share of space?

3) Expense Basis: Is the lease Full Service Gross, Modified Gross or NNN?

4) Annual Base Rent Increases: Flat, Consumer Price Index or Stepped?

5) Term: Ideal to lease for 3 vs. 5 vs. 10 years?

6) Free Rent Concession: How much Rental Abatement should there be?

7) TI’s: How much Tenant Improvement monies should the landlord be providing to the tenant to improve the space or building?

Conclusion: There are numerous factors to consider, retain a specialist expert real estate appraisal report from a real estate appraiser or real estate evaluation report from an advisor or consultant for location advice and to save enormous amounts of money and fixed operating costs.
