ANSI/BOMA Z65

ANSI/BOMA Z65 is a set of standards established by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) for measuring and reporting the usable area of commercial buildings. This framework provides a consistent way to calculate space, ensuring clarity and transparency in real estate transactions. By defining how to measure areas like offices, lobbies, and hallways, it helps landlords and tenants understand the actual usable space available, which can inform leasing agreements and property valuations. Essentially, it standardizes how we talk about space in commercial real estate.
