Headline rent vs. effective rent

Asking rents in Orlando are quoted in USD per sqft per year. Across the broad Class A index the figure is 32, but the trophy tier in Downtown reaches roughly $38/sqft/yr. Always discount headline rent by the present value of free rent and fit-out-capex">tenant improvement allowance to land on effective rent — the only number that compares cleanly across deals.

Rent-free and TI

Standard Orlando concessions on a 10-year Class A lease run to 12 months of base-rent abatement. Trophy lease-ups can push rent-free 25–40% above that benchmark. Local cost-of-occupancy is also shaped by tax — 21% federal plus Florida's 5.5% C-corp tax. No personal income tax. Combined effective rate near 22.5%.
