What Are BOMA Guidelines

BOMA guidelines are standards developed by the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) to measure and report on the size and use of commercial real estate properties. These guidelines provide a consistent and reliable way to determine a building's rentable square footage (RSF) and other vital metrics such as proper classification of spaces, load factors, and usable square footage.

Moreover, BOMA guidelines establish a universal standard for measuring and reporting on commercial real estate properties. This allows property owners, tenants, and real estate professionals to have a common understanding of the size and use of the spaces within a building.

The Importance of BOMA Guidelines

Understanding BOMA standards can play a crucial role in managing commercial spaces, especially in regard to negotiating leases, undergoing renovations, and obtaining quotes from vendors. In addition, when selling a commercial property, an accurate BOMA analysis can be indispensable for both parties during the due diligence period. Ensuring accurate area measurements benefits the stakeholders involved in the project, maintains transparency, and avoids disputes over space.

Why Hire a Company for BOMA Area Analysis

Interpreting and implementing BOMA guidelines can be complex and time-consuming, especially for those unfamiliar with industry standards. Handling this process alone can lead to misinterpretation, inaccuracies, and potential disputes with tenants or other stakeholders. Additionally, doing a BOMA area analysis yourself can take away from other important tasks related to managing and maintaining your property.
