Area of Science:

Real Estate
Medical Practice Management

Background:

Physicians often face complex decisions when leasing office space.
Standard lease rate comparisons may not reflect the true cost of occupancy.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce and explain the effective lease rate (ELR) for physicians.
To provide a framework for objective comparison of office space lease offers.

Main Methods:

The effective lease rate (ELR) is determined by analyzing multiple factors.
Key variables include building quality, location, lease terms, and tenant allowances.

Main Results:

The ELR incorporates building specifics, lease escalations, and improvement allowances.
It accounts for add-on factors and square footage measurement methods.

Conclusions:

The effective lease rate (ELR) offers a standardized method for physicians to compare office lease options.
Utilizing the ELR promotes objective decision-making in commercial real estate transactions for medical practices.
