What this skill does
Tracks leasing velocity against plan and tells you when stabilization has actually moved.
What it does
- Compares absorption to the original lease-up plan
- Reconciles effective vs face rent while concessions are running
- Models concession burn-off over time
- Reforecasts the stabilization date when absorption diverges from underwriting
When to use it
- New construction lease-up (ground-up). No existing tenants, no word-of-mouth, no track record. Months 1–3 typically run 50–70% of peak velocity. Typical…
- Value-add renovation lease-up (repositioning). Existing location with social proof. Typical velocity 15–30% faster than comparable ground-up in the same submarket.…
- Stabilized re-tenanting (post-acquisition mass expiration or re-letting event). Fastest of the three — the asset is already market-proven and velocity is constrained…
What to have ready
- Property name, address, unit count, first-CO date (or re-start date for renovation / re-tenanting)
- Lease-up type: NEW CONSTRUCTION, RENOVATION, or STABILIZED RE-TENANTING
- Original underwritten leasing schedule: month-by-month target occupancy, target stabilization month, target stabilization occupancy threshold
- Trailing leasing data: at minimum trailing 3 months of new leases signed per month; ideally trailing 6 months
- Current occupancy: total physical units, occupied units, model/employee/down units (for denominator clarity)
- Pre-leasing data if pre-CO: signed pre-leases and deposit status
- …and a few more items the skill will ask for as it goes
How to use it
- Download it with the button above. You'll sign in with a work email — that's how the creator knows who is using their skill.
- Copy the install prompt from the "Run it in Claude" box, and paste it into Claude along with the file. Claude installs the skill, fills in your firm's details where the file has
[BRACKETED]placeholders, and runs a quick test with you. - Then just ask in plain English. Claude picks the skill up on its own when a request matches it. Anything it still needs, it asks you for — it won't invent a number.
"Use the Lease-Up & Concessions Analyst skill — I've got property name, address, unit count, first-co date."
What you get back
A structured report covering absorption status, effective-vs-face rent reconciliation, concession program status, stabilization reforecast, market context, key risks, and verdict. You get it as readable analysis plus the underlying data, so it can feed straight into a memo or another skill.
Good to know
- Output quality tracks input quality. A missing figure is flagged as missing — it is never estimated to fill a gap.
- Every draft is a starting point for your own review, not a finished decision.
- Runs anywhere Claude does: the Claude app, Claude Desktop, or Claude Code.

Lease-Up & Concessions Analyst
Track leasing velocity against the original plan, reconcile effective vs face rent under active concession programs, model concession burn-off, and reforecast the stabilization date when absorption diverges from underwriting.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when a property is actively leasing up, burning off concessions, or tracking toward stabilization, and you need to assess whether the asset is on plan, behind plan, or at risk of covenant breach. The three lease-up types are distinguished because their velocity benchmarks and stabilization windows differ materially (per R5 §2):
- New construction lease-up (ground-up). No existing tenants, no word-of-mouth, no track record. Months 1–3 typically run 50–70% of peak velocity. Typical stabilization window: 12–18 months in Tier 1–2 balanced markets; 15–24 months in oversupplied Sun Belt.
- Value-add renovation lease-up (repositioning). Existing location with social proof. Typical velocity 15–30% faster than comparable ground-up in the same submarket. Typical stabilization window: 6–12 months. (Capex/scope side is owned by the Value-Add Execution Tracker — this skill covers only velocity and concession economics.)
- Stabilized re-tenanting (post-acquisition mass expiration or re-letting event). Fastest of the three — the asset is already market-proven and velocity is constrained only by physical turn time and unit-mix match. Typical re-stabilization: 90–180 days.
Do NOT use this skill for: budget-phase revenue assumptions on an already-stabilized asset (Annual Operating Budget Builder), stabilized renewal economics (NOI Improvement Analyst / renewal pricing), or LIHTC / HUD-affordable waitlist dynamics (out of scope — income-restriction distorts velocity).
