The new revenue recognition guidance is here, and the amount of work involved for those in the real estate industry to switch to the new framework will take careful attention and will vary by business.
While lease revenue is excluded from the scope of this new revenue guidance, non-lease components included in rental agreements, such as maintenance or other services, are covered. The new standard for recognizing revenue applies to all contracts with customers and, with so much variation in real estate contracts, each will need to be analyzed on its own or by portfolio of similar contracts.
