Vacancy Factor:
The amount of gross revenue that pro forma
income statements anticipate will be lost
because of vacancies, often expressed as a
percentage of the total rentable square footage
available in a building or project. |
|
Vacancy Rate:
The total amount of available space compared to
the total inventory of space and expressed as a
percentage. This is calculated by multiplying
the vacant space times 100 and then dividing it
by the total inventory. |
|
Vacant Space:
Refers to existing tenant space currently being
marketed for lease. This excludes space
available for sublease. |
|
Variance:
Refers to permission that allows a property
owner to depart from the literal requirements of
a
zoning ordinance
that, because of special circumstances, cause a
unique hardship. Included would be such things
as the particular physical surroundings, shape
or topographical condition of the property and
when compliance would result in a practical
difficulty and would deprive the owner of the
reasonable use of the property. |
