Frequently Asked Questions

What does $24.00 sf yr mean?

$24.00 sf yr means $24 per square foot per year in base rent. For example, a 5,000-square-foot office at that rate would have an annual base rent of $120,000 before additional costs. In NYC leasing, startups should also review whether the quote is gross, modified gross, or triple net, since taxes, utilities, and operating expenses may be separate.
