Abstract

The importance of taking corporate real estate decisions given a cyclical property market is discussed and illustrated. Ownership and leasing are described. Commercial lease terms are discussed in the context of the recent property cycle in Melbourne, Australia. A case study shows that the profitability of business units can be severely affected if the lease fundamentals, particularly the rent review mechanism, are misunderstood.
