Property Managers - Lease Plans Available

Creating lease plans from existing drawings, or field measurements, seems like something anyone can do. But hiring someone experienced in designing new buildings, additions and remodels to existing buildings to create these plans can help you in many ways. Many assumptions made by novice drafters, result in inaccurate plans, and area calculations. An architect can accurately measure, draft in a program that's useable to potential tenant designers/architects, and ensure you are charging for all leaseable spaces. BOMA rules to calculate usable, leaseable, and common areas require knowing how to measure the spaces: sometimes from inside face of wall or glass or face of mullion depending on window sill height, center of some walls, the face of finish on others, etc.

Benefits to potential and current Tenants:

• Potential clients rely on accurate plans to determine if they can make it work.
• With plans available, you can offer discounted design services.
• Negotiate for additional space, using accurate plans.
• Tenant improvement projects proceed faster having existing plans.

Other uses include:

• fire egress plans
• long-term planning
• use in maintenance programs (carpet areas, roof areas, etc)

CAD/BIM permits endless formats and sizes:

• Overall building plan
• Site plan
• Individual suite plans
• Tenant remodeling areas
• 8x11, 11x17, 22x34
• PDF, JPG, TIFF - digital archives.

Benefits to You:

• Save you countless hours measuring and guessing areas for various reasons.
• Save potentially thousands of dollars on contracted maintenance by knowing your SF
• Get it done now, start saving money each year you hold the building.
• Digital plans are very valuable if you plan to sell the property.

Give me a call - I love creating as-built drawings from plans or field measurements.
