Here's the scenario: you've already concluded an "as stabilized" value for the subject and you're using a residual technique to back into your "as is" value. One of the items you need to consider is rent loss.

If you’ve determined that “as stabilized” occupancy is 90% for an office building, and you’re calculating rent loss over an absorption period – do you calculate the rent loss up till the subject is 90% occupied or until it’s 100% full?

Would you be "double dipping" if you calculated it up to the 90% since the "as stabilized" value already incorporates the 10% vacancy?
 
You would calculate the rent loss up to stabilized occupancy. Vacancy is a normal rent loss while lease up is rent loss over and above that of normal vacancy.
 
What PE said!!!

I say account for rent loss to get you up to market stabilized occupancy levels (not necessarily 100%, but what the market shows as stabilized occupancy).
