Question

You consider buying an investment commercial property in New York. This property is 100% occupied and has three tenants, whose leases have 10 years remaining until the end of the lease term. 1st tenant occupies 5,000 SF and pays the base rent of $10,000/month. 2nd tenant occupies 1,500 SF, paying the base rent of $2,500/month. 3rd tenant occupies 3,000 SF, paying the base rent of $5,000/month. All three tenants have the absolute Triple Net lease and 3% annual increase in the base rent. During the due diligence, you’ve found out that the building requires an annual payment of $9,000 insurance, $35,000 property tax, and $11,000 common area maintenance (CAM) expenses.

A) What is the base rent and additional rent (i.e., insurance, tax, & CAM) per square foot (PSF)
