How it works

How does OccupancyNPV capture lease terms?

OccupancyNPV captures each option’s rent schedule, CAM, tenant improvement allowance, free rent, and escalations, then places them on one cash-flow timeline so tenant-rep brokers can discount that stream to NPV at an explicit rate.

How OccupancyNPV works today

Current OccupancyNPV workflow

  1. Start a 3-day free trial or create an account and sign in.
  2. Create or open a DealWorkspace.
  3. Enter competing lease scenarios.
  4. Add occupancy-cost and cash-flow assumptions such as rent steps, free rent, operating expenses, and allowances.
  5. Compare the scenarios in the workspace.
  6. Review NPV and discount-rate sensitivity.
  7. Inspect the in-workspace comparison summary.
  8. Save the workspace. Rename or archive it from your account history.
  9. Choose the next action: keep comparing, start Professional at $290/year, or buy Per-Deal at $149.

OccupancyNPV is a lease-comparison workspace. It is not a CRM and does not administer occupied buildings. Results depend on the inputs you enter and are not legal or investment advice.

  1. Create an account and sign in.
  2. Choose Professional or Per-Deal through OccupancyNPV checkout, or use an existing paid entitlement.
  3. Create a DealWorkspace.
  4. Enter competing lease scenarios.
  5. Configure economic terms such as rent steps, free rent, and occupancy-cost inputs.
  6. Run the comparison and NPV.
  7. Review results and discount-rate sensitivity in the workspace.

The problem the current method creates

Deal by deal, a hidden cell changes the ranking. Brokers rebuild a workbook. Discount-rate cases live in a separate tab. Face rent becomes the headline because the rest of the file is too fragile to share.

Broker inputs and lease inputs

Broker inputs are the measurement period, the discount rate the client can explain, and the labels that will appear on the client summary. Lease inputs are start rent, term, escalations, tenant improvement allowance, free rent, and CAM. Missing fields stay visible instead of disappearing into a hidden cell.

Term normalization and cash-flow generation

A thirty-six-month option and a sixty-month option cannot be ranked by adding the printed years. The workflow normalizes the shared occupancy window, then generates a cash-flow stream for each option so when cash moves is explicit.

TI, free rent, CAM, and escalations

Tenant improvement allowance is a timed cash event, not a brochure number. Free rent changes year-one occupancy cost and the later step-up base. CAM belongs in occupancy cost when the tenant pays it. Escalations change later periods and can flip a ranking when discounted.

Tenant improvement allowance is a timed cash event, not a brochure number. Free rent changes year-one occupancy cost and the later step-up base.

NPV, sensitivity, comparison, and client summary

NPV converts the cash-flow stream into today’s dollars. Sensitivity analysis keeps the rate visible so a ranking flip is not an artifact of one assumption. The comparison and the in-workspace client summary stay next to those cases.

Before

Each deal rebuilds a workbook. Discount-rate cases live in a separate tab, if they exist at all.

After

One comparison workspace. Cash-flow compare, NPV + sensitivity, and the client summary stay together.

Worked example

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE. Lease A starts at $42,000 with two months of free rent and $18,000 of TI. Lease B starts cheaper, escalates faster, and offers less TI. After discounting the cash-flow stream at 8%, Lease A’s illustrative NPV is lower.

What OccupancyNPV does

It keeps cash-flow, NPV, and sensitivity in one workspace and produces a in-workspace client summary for tenant-rep conversations. Pricing are $290 per year or $149 per deal. Live checkout is available for Professional and Per-Deal.

What it does not do

It does not administer leases, run a CRM, produce ASC 842 entries, or give legal advice. It is a working OccupancyNPV product, not a CRM or lease-administration suite.

Limitations and objections

NPV does not capture every qualitative consideration. A lower NPV is not automatically the better occupancy choice. Separate emails still exist for legal review; this workflow does not replace counsel.

Positioning: this is a focused workflow, not a brokerage suite. Product visualization stays next to the steps. Benefits include a in-workspace client summary. Use cases are tenant-rep comparisons. Trust or disclosure: working OccupancyNPV product, live checkout on the pricing page, not legal advice.

Why it matters

Deeper explanation of the proposed comparison workflow belongs in the comparison because face rent alone hides timing. How it works in practice: put the cash event on the occupancy-cost timeline, then discount. This is the next logical step after reading a definition.

Example

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE. The Lease A versus Lease B figures used across this site are educational samples, not customer results. They exist so the proposed comparison workflow can be seen beside rent, CAM, TI, free rent, and escalations instead of as an isolated slogan.

How it works

Capture the term. Place it on the cash-flow stream. Discount. Compare. Keep the assumption visible. That sequence is the product visualization of the OccupancyNPV workflow, not a production screenshot.

A fuller reading of the proposed comparison workflow

Broker inputs and lease inputs are different jobs. The broker sets the window and the rate. The leases supply rent, CAM, TI, free rent, and escalations. Term normalization is the unglamorous step that prevents a short cheap deal from winning by omitting later years. Cash-flow generation is where incentives stop being slogans. NPV is the sum. Sensitivity is the honesty check. The client summary is the artifact the meeting can survive.

Tenant-rep brokers still have to verify the lease. This page does not replace counsel. It does not claim FASB, NAIOP, or BOMA endorsement. It uses those organizations as independent professional context so a citation-ready answer can name the entity, state the fact, and show the limitation.

If two options differ only by a brochure number, the comparison is unfinished. If they differ by when cash moves, the comparison is an NPV problem. If they differ by who pays operating expenses, the comparison is a structure problem. the proposed comparison workflow is one of those differences. The proposed focused workflow keeps those differences on one in-workspace client summary.

Current prices are $290 per year for Professional and $149 per deal for Per-Deal. Live checkout is available on the pricing page. A serious owner can publish this page because the example is labeled, the sources are named, and the conversion path is honest.

Who is this not for

who is this not for: this workflow is not for landlords running a portfolio, not for property managers administering occupied buildings, and not for teams that need a full brokerage suite. It is also not for anyone who wants a CRM or lease-administration suite.

Objections worth answering now

OccupancyNPV is a working product. Live checkout is available on the pricing page. A lower NPV is not automatically the better occupancy choice. Sample figures are illustrative and are not customer results.
