December 2, 2008 – Real Estate Forum, Toronto, Ontario – Space Database Inc., a leading provider of web-based real estate applications, today announced the availability of its new Lease DashboardTM application for leasing and asset management, delivered entirely via the web.
A Canada first, the Lease DashboardTM provides senior portfolio managers with a strategic overview of leasing activity and revenue in a simple to use application that compiles a brief lease abstract for each tenant and stores scanned leases in a highly secure environment for quick access. The application produces reports on a portfolio level flagging key dates, step ups, key performance metrics such as average weighted rent and also generates customizable stacking plans. Space Database provides a full turn-key implementation for the system, including a new service for lease abstracting.
Space Database worked extensively with Slate Properties of Toronto to develop the first generation of the application. “We required an application to allow our staff and our partners to generate quick online reports to keep tabs on our portfolio. We are very pleased with the functionality that Lease Dashboard provides,” said Adam Lazier, Senior Vice President.
Lease DashboardTM allows for instant information on portfolio, regional and building performance. Portfolio managers can now get on a call with investors and be able to discuss real estate assets on the following basis without much preparation:
· Relative financial performance of specific buildings and groups of buildings in the portfolio;
· Risk to (and opportunity for) cash-flow in terms of length of lease commitment and the percentage of actual BOMA area reflected in leases;
· Risk in terms of type of tenants;
· Metrics used to value buildings that are essential in purchase and sale negotiations.
The telephone discussion can be completely supported by appropriate reports produced online by the Space Database system.
John Zsolt, Space Database Vice President and co-founder commented, “Lease Dashboard complements our suite of online real estate applications with a new focus on asset management. We are grateful to Slate Properties for their design input and testing of the application in its beta form.”
Space Database provides numerous web services to support mission critical processes for leasing, property and asset management. These include a certified floor plan and building measurement service, web hosting, INDEXIO building drawing management, and Lease Dashboard for lease performance management.
