Inflation

Recoveries and Inflation will be done on a fiscal basis.

General Inflation Rate: 3.00% every year, starting in 2021

Market Inflation Rate: 4.00% in 2021 and 2022, 3.00% thereafter

Expense Inflation Rate: 3.00% every year, starting in 2021

Revenue

Donovan Plaza offers Car Wash Services to the tenants that park in the parking garage for a fee. This miscellaneous revenue can generate an additional $12,375 per month if the building is 100.0% occupied. However, if no one is in the building no revenue is generated.

Within the Parking Garage, there are Reserved Spaces that Donovan Plaza earns additional Parking Revenue from. Donovan Plaza charges $100.00 per space per month and they have 75 parking spaces that can be reserved. Just like the Car Wash Services, if the building isnt occupied, this revenue with not generate any income.

Both revenues will grow the General Inflation Rate.

Operating Expenses

All Operating Expenses are 100.0% Fixed, except for the Janitorial expense. 75.0% of the Janitorial expense is variable. All Operating Expenses grow with Expense Inflation Rate, unless otherwise stated. The annual totals and timing of the expenses are as follows:

Real Estate Taxes: $125,000 paid in October of each year; Growing at a rate of 2.00%

Insurance: $55,000

Janitorial: $0.27 per Rentable Area (Building Area) per month

Common Area Maintenance: $1.78 per Occupied Area (Building Area)

Repairs & Maintenance: $2,190 per Month; Growing at a rate of 3.50%

Donovan Plaza has a non-recoverable Operating Expense in the form of a Management Fee. This fee is 3.0% of the Effective Gross Revenue.

Capital Expenses

Donovan Plaza plans on having two (2) Capital Expenses on the books. The first expense will be a Replacement Reserve Account to handle any unforeseen structural repairs that may come up. This account will be entered as $0.20 per Rentable Area (Building Area) per year. This expense will grow with the Expense Inflation Rate.

The second Capital Expense will be for a known Roof Repair expense that will occur in April of 2024. Donovan Plaza found a contract company to give them a quote of $43,750. This amount already took into account inflation and represents what the cost would be in 2024.
