Cambridge biotech and Boston tower base-year gross-up errors are the largest single dispute lever in the country by recovery size. A 2020-2022 base year on a 200,000 SF Kendall Square lease that was not grossed up runs into seven figures.
Cite Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 260 § 2 and the gross-up provision in your lease. The dispute letter should show the partial-occupancy correction year-by-year and the cumulative impact across the lease term.
Massachusetts courts read base-year and gross-up provisions in favour of the express obligation. If the lease specifies gross-up "to a 95% occupancy level" and the landlord did not apply it, the obligation binds.
Cambridge and Boston tenants — the base-year gross-up scan is the dispute lever and the recovery is usually the largest of any market we audit. Generate the letter and send it.
