Office

Office property management, built for base-year economics

Office leases run on base years, expense stops, gross-up, and CPI escalations — the exact mechanics Plazee automates, on a real accounting platform that produces lender-ready statements.

Typical lease
Full-service / modified gross
Recovery method
Base year or expense stop
Escalations
Fixed, percentage, or CPI
Typical term
3–10 years

Office buildings rarely run on pure triple-net. Most use full-service or modified-gross leases with base-year or expense-stop recoveries, gross-up provisions to handle vacancy, and CPI or fixed escalations. Those mechanics are fiddly in a spreadsheet and unsupported in residential-first tools. Plazee handles them natively and posts everything to a double-entry general ledger, so your recoveries and your financial statements are the same numbers.

What makes office different

Base-year & expense-stop math

Calculating each tenant’s share of expenses over a base year or stop, year after year, without spreadsheet drift.

Gross-up during vacancy

Adjusting variable expenses to a target occupancy so partially leased buildings recover fairly.

CPI escalations

Applying index-based rent increases accurately as CPI is published.

Multi-tenant pro-rata

Allocating recoveries across many suites on a floor with consistent, defensible shares.

How Plazee handles it

Base-year and expense-stop recoveries

Configure base-year operating expenses or a per-square-foot expense stop per lease, and Plazee calculates each tenant’s share of the increase above the threshold — with gross-up applied to variable expenses so vacancy does not distort the result.

  • Per-lease base year or expense stop
  • Gross-up of variable expenses to a target occupancy
  • Pro-rata allocation by square footage, equal share, or custom percentage

Escalations on your terms

Apply fixed-dollar, fixed-percentage, or CPI-indexed escalations. Plazee tracks the CPI values and computes the new rent, so increases post on schedule without manual recalculation.

Lender-ready accounting

Office assets are often financed, and lenders want DSCR, LTV, and T-12 statements. Because Plazee runs on a full general ledger, those reports generate straight from your books.

Frequently asked questions

Does Plazee handle base-year and expense-stop office leases?

Yes. You can set a base year or a per-square-foot expense stop per lease, and Plazee calculates each tenant’s share of expenses above the threshold, with gross-up applied to variable costs.

Can Plazee apply CPI escalations?

Yes. Plazee supports fixed, percentage, and CPI-indexed escalations, tracking CPI values and computing the resulting rent automatically.

Is Plazee suitable for multi-tenant office buildings?

Yes. Plazee allocates recoveries across multiple suites using pro-rata square footage, equal share, or custom per-lease percentages, all on a double-entry ledger.
