Commercial Building Lease

Florida

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

What's permitted use in a commercial lease?

I am in the process of negotiating a commercial lease for my business and I am interested in understanding the concept of "permitted use." Specifically, I am curious about what activities are allowed in the leased space and what limitations there may be. I would like to consult with a lawyer to ensure that the terms of the lease align with the needs of my business and that I am not at risk of violating any provisions.

Diane D.

Answered Mar 21, 2023

Permitted use means that you can only use it for the reason you rented it. For example, you cannot rent a place to use as a gym but then use it for a nightclub.

Finance Lease

Georgia

Asked on Mar 10, 2025

What are the legal implications of entering into a finance lease agreement?

I am considering entering into a finance lease agreement for a commercial property, and I would like to understand the legal implications before making a decision. I have been approached by a leasing company that is offering favorable terms, such as lower upfront costs and fixed monthly payments, but I am uncertain about the potential risks and responsibilities involved. I want to ensure that I am fully aware of my legal obligations and rights under a finance lease agreement before proceeding.

Jerome L.

Answered Apr 8, 2025

Hi there, A finance lease agreement can be a practical way to acquire commercial property or equipment with lower upfront costs and fixed payments—but it comes with specific legal obligations and long-term commitments that you should fully understand before signing. Here are the key legal implications to consider: Legal Considerations in a Finance Lease Agreement: Binding Long-Term Obligation: A finance lease is typically non-cancellable during the lease term, meaning you are legally obligated to make payments for the entire duration, even if you no longer need the property. Ownership vs. Use: You do not own the property under a finance lease. You are leasing it for an extended period, often with an option to purchase at the end. However, all the risks and responsibilities of ownership—like maintenance, insurance, and taxes—may still fall on you. Lessor’s Ownership Rights: The leasing company retains title to the property during the lease term. If you default, they typically have the right to repossess the property and pursue you for any remaining balance. Fixed Monthly Payments (But Watch for Hidden Costs): While the fixed payments seem attractive, be sure to review: Interest rates Late fees or penalties Additional service charges or fees tied to property upkeep End-of-Term Options: Understand your rights at the end of the lease: Can you buy the property? Are there residual value payments? Will you owe fees for wear-and-tear or restoration? Termination & Default Clauses: Read the fine print on what constitutes default and whether the lessor can accelerate payments or take legal action if you miss a payment. Impact on Financial Statements: A finance lease may appear as a liability on your balance sheet, depending on how the lease is structured. It’s wise to consult with an accountant on this point too. Before moving forward, I highly recommend having the lease agreement reviewed by an attorney. This will ensure the terms are fair, your risks are understood, and you are fully protected. If you would like assistance reviewing or negotiating the terms of your finance lease, I am happy to help. Best regards, Jerome Lucas Newell, Esq. Commercial Lease & Business Contracts Attorney

Commercial Lease

Massachusetts

Asked on Apr 24, 2023

Can the tenant sublease the property to another business?

I am a business owner and I am looking to rent a commercial space for my business. I am considering signing a commercial lease with the landlord, but I am concerned about my ability to sublease the property to another business. I am trying to determine whether this is an option that is available to me and what the implications would be.

Joseph M.

Answered May 12, 2023

In Massachusetts, a commercial tenant can sublet or even fully assign the unit to a third party - UNLESS there is a specific prohibition in the current lease. However, even if there is such a prohibition, it might still be worth speaking to the landlord about since it might be mutually beneficial.

Addendum to Lease

Washington

Asked on Jun 12, 2024

Can a landlord add an addendum to a lease without the consent of the tenant?

I recently signed a lease for a commercial property, and now the landlord wants to add an addendum to the lease that includes additional fees and requirements that were not part of our original agreement. I believe that the addendum is unfair and would put an excessive burden on my business. However, the landlord claims that they have the right to make changes to the lease without my consent. I would like to know if the landlord can legally add an addendum to the lease without my agreement, and what options I have to protect my rights as a tenant in this situation.

Merry K.

Answered Jun 18, 2024

Generally speaking, one party to any sort of contract cannot amend any sort of contract unilaterally…however, review your lease very carefully to see if you granted the landlord any such rights when you signed your contract—for example, that the landlord could increase the rent if his property taxes or insurance increases.

Office Space Lease

New York

Asked on Dec 23, 2024

Can a landlord terminate an office space lease before the agreed-upon term ends?

I recently signed a lease agreement for office space for my small business, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I may need to relocate sooner than anticipated. I want to know if the landlord has the right to terminate the lease before the agreed-upon term ends, and if so, what are the potential consequences for me as the tenant? I am concerned about any financial penalties or obligations that may arise from terminating the lease early.

Damien B.

Answered Dec 24, 2024

A landlord could agree to terminate the lease if a tenant requests it or can modify a lease to allow for an option for a tenant to vacate the premises at an earlier date. If a tenant wants to vacate the premises on an earlier date than the lease end date, either the landlord would have to agree to the earlier termination date or the tenant could be found in breach of contract. If you are considering early termination, it's advisable to communicate with the landlord to explore possible solutions, such as subleasing, assigning the lease, or negotiating a modification to the lease agreement. Feel free to reach out if you have other questions about this.
