    More is better.

    Although when I go out more than 5 years I insist on an escalator clause in the lease.

    Sorry, been away.

    What amount do you use for regular progression?

    Well there are a number of choices

    1) a fixed rate (5% per year)

    2) a variable rate tied to some index (usually the Consumer Price Index although there are other options)

    3) some variation of the above plus a property tax increase pass through
