Thinking of renewing your lease and waiting to buy? With the risk of short-term tightening of credit markets in the near future and sellers more willing to negotiate, I urge you to consult with an experienced commercial real estate agent to make an educated decision.
Here’s an example of law firm using 3,000 of office space.
Current lease
3,000 SF @ $25 PSF
$6,250 / month
Potential renewal
3,000 SF @ $20 PSF
$5,000 / month
$300,000 in landlord’s pocket over 5 year lease term
Purchase
3,000 SF @ $250 PSF
$750,000
15% down / 15 year term / 15 year amortization / 4.5% fixed
Approximately $4,900 / month
With bi-monthly payments, potential to pay off in 13.5 years
We do lease versus purchase and space needs assessments multiple times per day and can provide you with a complimentary assessment of your specific situation.
