OCCUPANCY TRANSITION STRATEGY · CANADARenew the premises?
Renew the premises?
Or fund the move?
Compare the full renewal and relocation paths after lease economics, construction capital, overlap, moving, old-space restoration and business disruption.
01 · COMMON DECISION FRAME
Put both occupancy paths on one horizon.
The opening scenario is illustrative—not market data. Replace every lease, capital and operating assumption with evidence for the actual renewal and relocation alternatives.
02 · TRANSITION COST STACK
Price the change, not just the new rent.
Lease economics and transition economics stay separate so allowances, capital, overlap and operational disruption cannot quietly disappear into one blended number.
03 · DECISION READOUT
See what the move has to overcome.
The lower entered result is arithmetic—not a recommendation. Building fit, labour access, operational resilience, option validity and execution risk remain separate decisions.
PV DIFFERENCE · RELOCATION MINUS RENEWAL+ $624,045Renewal is lower PV
Starting relocation rent that reaches the renewal PV, all other entered terms held constant.
Whole double-occupancy months before relocation exceeds the renewal PV.
Entered daily business impact only; this is not an operational forecast.
PV advantage still available for additional entered relocation cost.

05 · DECISION CONTROL QUEUE
Resolve what the arithmetic cannot.
Review prompts identify missing or normalized evidence. They do not validate the option, premises, schedule or transition plan.
The numbers are internally consistent; the transaction evidence still controls.
MODEL BOUNDARY
Decision support—not a notice or recommendation.
- Both lease proposals are recalculated over the same user-entered comparison horizon and discount rate.
- Lease incentives and tenant capital use the flagship lease engine; TI allowance, landlord work and other incentives are treated as immediate economic offsets, while free rent follows the entered monthly scope.
- Relocation overlap adds the entered current-premises monthly occupancy cost for the selected number of months; it does not rebuild the existing lease or infer when possession is available.
- Business disruption is the entered number of days multiplied by the entered daily impact. The model does not estimate revenue loss, productivity, customer attrition or operational risk.
- Transition costs, restoration, moving, timing, tax and legal outcomes are user-entered and unverified. The model does not determine option validity, notice compliance, possession rights or restoration scope.
