This comment was downvoted for snark, but the point is accurate. Inflation could double rental prices and then all of Wework leases will be worth a lot.

Aren't leases usually inflation adjusted?

In most places it's usually completely dependent on the contract, if you are a big leaser (such as WeWork) you can leverage a lot of terms just by having money and paying upfront.

I have never seen an inflation adjusted lease in any of the commercial leases I've done.
