Renewing a lease, but management wants justification. One technique is to compare a renewal with relocating to a generic office in the market, to get costs such as rent, operating expenses, TI allowances and then complete a analysis to relocate the office. When complete, use the analysis to compare this cost to renewing. Making an Informed Decision is the heart and soul of our analysis As a your tenant representative it is our job to identify the alternative solutions available, negotiate the best deal possible, and present our clients with an unbiased complete analysis detailing the costs and assumptions for each alternative.

You can then make an informed decision based on the total cost to the company. It's not just the rent! Intangibles such as location, view, elevator presence, a B building versus an A building, etc. are not "hard costs"; however, management can make an informed decision based on the real cost.

The Cash Flow report shows the cost to the corporation since it takes into account Capital, the cost of money (the net present value discount rate) and income taxes. Sometimes the P&L and the Net Present Value After Taxes indicate different properties should be selected based on cost alone– this is one of the challenges of life in corporate real estate. P&L, Cash Flow, before tax, after tax, net present value. Is cost an issue when considering relocation? What if management keeps saying go to B buildings, stepping down from A-? Select a B building, "the low cost alternative", and run an analysis.
