Net rentable square feet is the amount of a building’s space a landlord charges rent for — it covers the tenant’s private area plus a share of common areas such as lobbies, halls and restrooms. Investors care because it’s the base used to calculate rental income and rent-per-square-foot comparisons, which directly affect occupancy metrics, cash flow and property valuation, similar to how the number of sellable seats drives a theater’s revenue.
