Tier C · projection only
Projection only — not a lease or legal advice. Actual commercial leases are governed by the signed document: escalation bases, CPI series and base periods, floors/caps, and timing of adjustments all vary. CPI-indexed clauses are often tied to a specific index (e.g. CPI-U All Urban Consumers) and base value that this tool simplifies. Confirm the negotiated terms and current index values with a landlord and qualified professional before relying on any schedule.
