Do tenants in the Garment District pay the NYC Commercial Rent Tax?

Yes, for larger leases. The Garment District is in Manhattan below 96th Street, where the city's Commercial Rent Tax applies. A tenant owes it only when base rent for the space is $250,000 a year or more. The tax is 6% of base rent after a 35% reduction, so 3.9% of rent, with a sliding credit between $250,000 and $300,000, and the Small Business Tax Credit wipes it out for businesses with total income of $5 million or less and base rent under $500,000.

Is it free to post on Leasemark?

Yes. Posting a space or a requirement is free. Contact details are only shared when both sides accept an intro.
