Pad - Ground Tenant Type
- Characterizes the tenant type based
on usage of the leased area; a parcel of land subdivided
from a larger parcel upon which a lessee constructs
a building; pad sites are typically located around shopping
malls and in high-scale retail areas. Generally, pad
sites are located close to a street or freeway or close
to an entrance or exit of a mall or shopping center.
Pad
- Improved Tenant Type - Characterizes
the tenant type based on usage of the leased area; a
parcel of land subdivided from a larger parcel upon
which is improved a freestanding building or buildings;
pad sites are typically located around shopping malls
and in high-scale retail areas. Generally, pad sites
are located close to a street or freeway or close to
an entrance or exit of a mall or shopping center.
Pad
Sites - Individual freestanding sites
or parcels of land comprising the property; often adjacent
to a larger shopping center. Pad sites are typically
leased by national retailers and fast food restaurants;
usually structured as long-term ground leases in which
the improvements (buildings) are commonly leasehold
improvements (owned by the tenant).
Partial
Recourse - Identifies whether the lender
accepts partial-recourse loan requests.
Partially
Sprinklered - Identifies whether only
portions of the property are sprinklered; a sprinkler
system is typically an automatic fire-suppression system

water or fire retardant from overhead sprinklers when
excessive heat and/or smoke is detected. Fire systems
are typically wet, dry or chemical systems.
Passenger
Elevator - An elevator used to carry
people, typically separate from a freight elevator.
Elevators should be adequate in terms of speed, load
capacity, safety, number, and they should be able to
meet peak period demands. Appraisers judge the adequacy
of elevators using established standards (e.g. one elevator
per 25,000-40,000 square feet of GBA). Elevator service
impacts the overall functionality of the property.
Percentage
Lease - Commonly used for large retail
stores. Rent payments include a minimum or “base
rent” plus a percentage of the gross sales “overage”.
Percentages generally vary from one to six percent of
the gross sales depending on the type of store and sales
volume.
Percentage
Rent - Rent, computed as a percentage
of retail sales above a breakpoint, paid by tenants
under typical retail leases. Usually paid instead of
or in addition to a specified minimum base rent; commonly
used for large retail stores. Rent payments include
a minimum or "base rent" plus a percentage
of the gross sales "overage." Percentages
generally vary from 1% to 6% of the gross sales depending
on the type of store and sales volume. Overage rent
is percentage rent paid over and above the guaranteed
minimum rent or base rent; calculated as a percentage
of sales in excess of specified breakeven sales volume.
Percentage
Subsidized - Identifies the percentage
of scheduled gross rental income that is subsidized.
Permanent
Loan - A mortgage loan, usually covering
development costs, interim loans, construction loans,
financing expenses, and marketing, administrative, legal,

obligation, generally for a period of 10 years or more.

Phase
I - An assessment and report prepared
by a professional environmental consultant which reviews
the property - both land and improvements - to ascertain
the presence or potential presence of environmental
hazards at the property such as underground water contamination,
PCB’s, abandoned disposal of paints and other
chemicals, asbestos and a wide range of other potentially
damaging materials. This Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment ("ESA") provides a review and makes
a recommendation as to whether further investigation
is warranted (a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment).
This latter report would confirm or disavow the presence
of an environmental hazard and, should one be found,
will recommend additional review and/or mitigation efforts
that should be undertaken.

Public Securities Association which is also known as

two (usually more) anchor stores.
Preliminary
Title Fee - A quoted or estimate fee
to cover the cost of the title documents and services
required by the lender to obtain a mortgage.
Prepayment
Lockout - The number of periods during
which the borrower is restricted from prepaying the
mortgage loan; typically expressed in years or months.
In order to reduce prepayment risk, commercial mortgages
commonly have lockout periods and/or prepayment premiums
or yield maintenance. A prepayment penalty is paid by
the borrower for any prepayments made on a mortgage
loan if required under the loan documents. The premium
is usually set at a fixed rate which, at times, decrease
in steps as the loan matures. For example, a mortgage
loan can have a premium of 5% for the first seven years
and during the next five years the premium decreases
at a rate of 1% per year (4% in year eight, 3% in year
nine); after year twelve, there is no prepayment premium.
