Commercial Lease Calculator

Calculate commercial lease for real estate investments and properties

How it works

Enter square footage, base rent per sq ft, annual rent increases, and lease term. The calculator projects total lease costs and escalations over time.

Example

Leasing 5,000 sq ft at $25/sq ft with 3% annual increases over 5 years totals $661,477 in rent payments.

FAQs

Most commercial leases run 3-10 years. Longer terms (5-10 years) give landlords stability and often include rent escalations.

Fixed percentage (2-3% annually), CPI adjustments, or fixed dollar amount increases. Escalations protect landlords from inflation.

Commercial leases typically require payment of remaining rent or significant early termination penalties. Review break clauses carefully before signing.
