## FAQ
### Are these real listings?
No — submarket matches are indicative of typical Class A inventory in that area. Use them to shortlist neighborhoods, then engage a broker for live availability.

### Does the budget include fit-out?
No — fit-out is a separate capex line. Use the Fit-out Budget Estimator to size it.

### What does 'all-in $/sf' include?
Base rent + operating expenses (opex / service charge) + property tax. Excludes fit-out, parking, and tenant electricity.

### Why does headcount have such a wide range?
Density choices (private vs hybrid) swing required area by more than 2×. The range reflects realistic outcomes once you pick a layout.
