💼 Commercial Lease Negotiation Tips
Rent Abatement
Negotiate for free rent periods, especially in the first months when you're setting up the space.
Tenant Improvements
Request a tenant improvement allowance to offset build-out costs for your specific business needs.
Expense Caps
Cap controllable expenses like CAM fees to limit unpredictable cost increases during your lease term.
Renewal Options
Secure renewal options at predetermined rates to protect against market fluctuations.
Exit Clauses
Negotiate termination options or sublease rights to maintain flexibility as your business evolves.
Expense Audits
Include the right to audit landlord's expense statements to ensure you're not overpaying for pass-through costs.
