How a corporate real estate team screens an incoming lease or purchase proposal

A corporate real estate team can handle a lease or purchase proposal from a landlord or broker by looking closely at the economics in the proposal. Underwriting reads the proposal documents and lists the numbers and assumptions, so the team compares options on the same basis. ## What to check | Check | Why it matters | |---|---| | Effective rent after concessions | Headline rent hides the real cost | | Term and renewal options | Drives flexibility | | Operating expense pass-throughs | Often the largest surprise | | Tenant improvement allowance | Changes the net cost | | Termination and expansion rights | Matter if headcount changes | ## How Titleman fits Titleman has two services for this work.
