TI and option provisions, finally the way your senior counsel writes them.

Office leases are a maze of TI allowances, expansion rights, fair-market disputes, and load-factor calculations. One misstep in the options provisions and you've given away leverage you will never get back.

LeasePilot encodes your office forms with the conditional logic that already lives in your team's head, and applies it to every draft.

Sound familiar?

  1. 01 Disbursement timing, scope limitations, unused-allowance treatment

  2. 02 ROFO vs. ROFR, FMV definitions, cap and floor provisions

  3. 03 Base year vs. expense stop, gross-up, controllable caps

  4. 04 Reserved vs. unreserved, ratios per RSF, rate escalations

Office leases hide their complexity in the margins.

On the surface they look standard. Underneath, every provision has variables. TI gets disbursed differently for a Class A downtown tower than a suburban flex space. Renewal options need a floor, a cap, and an FMV definition that won't end in arbitration. Operating expenses can be base year, expense stop, fully grossed up, partially grossed up, controllable, or uncontrollable.

You know it. Your team knows it. The mistake is when the document stops reflecting it.

TI allowance disputes

Disbursement timing, scope limitations, landlord oversight, unused-allowance treatment, each deal has its own answers.

Options that backfire

ROFO vs. ROFR, fair-market-rent definitions, cap and floor provisions. One ambiguous term creates years of litigation risk.

Parking complexity

Reserved vs. unreserved, ratios per RSF, EV-charging requirements, rate escalations. Modern offices need modern provisions.

Operating-expense structures

Base year vs. expense stop, gross-up to 95% occupancy, controllable expense caps. The wrong structure changes the deal economics entirely.

You describe the deal. The platform writes the office lease.

Your office forms, encoded with conditional logic that handles the variations automatically. Class A downtown vs. suburban flex, full-floor vs. multi-tenant, credit tenant vs. startup.

You describe the deal. The system produces the document with the right TI provisions, the right option structures, the right operating-expense methodology. No manual assembly.

Four areas where office leases earn their reputation

TI Allowances

Disbursement choreography, scope of work, landlord oversight, unused-allowance treatment.

  • Lump-sum vs. phased disbursement
  • Scope of work limitations
  • Landlord supervision requirements
  • Unused-allowance treatment

Options Rights

Renewals, ROFOs, ROFRs, expansion mechanics, and termination triggers, all worded the way your team has settled them in the past.

  • Renewal at FMV with floor/cap
  • ROFO vs. ROFR on adjacent space
  • Expansion option mechanics
  • Termination right conditions

Parking

Modern offices need modern parking provisions, EV included.

  • Reserved vs. unreserved ratios
  • Monthly rate and escalations
  • EV-charging provisions
  • Visitor and after-hours access

Operating Expenses

Base year, expense stop, gross-up methodology, controllable caps, methodology you trust applied the same way every time.

  • Base year vs. expense stop
  • Gross-up to 95% occupancy
  • Capital exclusions and amortization
  • Controllable expense caps

These are illustrative. Your platform is custom-built around your specific lease forms and deal logic.

A template won't catch what your team already knows. The platform will.

Manual assembly

Find the right form, hunt down last quarter's option language, swap defined terms, hope nothing got pasted from an outdated copy. Every lease assembled by hand.

Approximate output

An LLM can write language that sounds professional. It can't reliably reflect that this building doesn't allow 24-hour HVAC, or that Class A renewals cap at 110% of FMV in your portfolio.

Encoded judgment

Your office forms, your conditional rules, your fallback positions, encoded and executable. Same deal parameters, same document, every time.
