lease comparison spreadsheet for CRE

[Courtney Duong]

Hi BP,

Anyone in commercial real estate having a lease comparison template/spreadsheet that you can share?  Thanks.

There are several, but you need to read/understand the individual leases since a XLS won't:

1) Weigh credit-worth of the tenant

2) Probability of the success of his business

3) Guarantees like personal or corporate

4) Tenant outs or rent holidays

Simpler stuff like lease rates/terms are not that difficult.  However, someone that can just walk and is paying a 50% premium isn't that great as a tenant.
