A Montana commercial lease is a formal agreement signed between two parties to rent land, property, building, or vehicle for business purposes. The agreement includes rules and provisions that the landlord and the tenant must abide by during the tenure. A commercial lease is more expensive and complicated than a residential lease. It is applicable in every place and enforceable by law.
The Montana commercial lease falls under the same category and is applicable to the US state of the same name.
What Is The Montana Commercial Lease?
The Montana commercial lease is a legal agreement that establishes the relationship between a commercial landlord and a tenant or a business entity. The commercial lease is applicable only for business purposes. It is longer, more expensive, and more complicated than a residential lease and requires legal assistance to comprise the required rules and obligations.
The Montana commercial lease binds a landlord and a tenant to a set of terms and conditions that guide the rental agreement for the entire tenure. The legal document includes details, such as the lease duration, rental payment, subleasing condition, provisions, etc., that both parties must abide by before signing it.
Key Terms Related to the Montana Commercial Lease
Business tenants and commercial landlords must understand the key terms related to a commercial lease before signing it.
Here is a glossary of key terms related to the Montana commercial lease.
- Premises: A land or building owned by a specific party.
- Effective Date: It is the date an agreement or transaction takes effect or becomes enforceable.

Can the tenant make changes to the property's signage?
I am looking to rent a commercial property for my business and have recently come across a potential property. The lease agreement states that the tenant is not allowed to make any changes to the property's signage. I am interested in understanding if there are any exceptions to this rule and if the tenant can make changes to the signage.
Michael C.
Standard commercial lease template includes language about the nature and extent of modifications tenants can make to a property. In this instance, there's no legal or regulatory exception that is going to protect you from a restriction in the lease. Your best bet is to negotiate directly with the landlord for a modification to the lease terms.

Should I use a lawyer for commercial lease?
It is a very long lease and I'm not sure what it says. I also don't want to pay a fortune to have it reviewed to eat into my budget.
George O.
Yes! Before signing any contract/agreement/lease, or anything that appears to be a binding agreement, it is worth the money to have a lawyer review it. I charge a flat fee to review any and all agreements, so my clients know up front what they are paying, and they consider it a cost of doing business. The alternative, i.e. not having a lawyer review your agreements prior to signing, can be, and usually is, exponentially more expensive should a conflict arise (and they often do).

Can the rent be increased during the lease term?
I am an entrepreneur who is looking to rent a commercial space for my business. I recently found a space that fits my needs and the landlord is offering a lease agreement. I am wondering if the rent can be increased during the lease term, as this could have a significant impact on my business. I understand that the lease agreement may contain provisions that allow for rent increases, but I would like to confirm this before signing the agreement.
Jeffrey K.
The lease agreement should specifically provide when and in what amount any rent increases would occur. Usually on a lease with a five year term, rent would increase yearly. If you have a build out credit, you may have free rent for a term if you pay for the build out. If it is a net lease, meaning you pay rent and, either taxes, insurance and/or common area maintenance, you would have a base rent plus the other fees that could increase during the initial lease term usually yearly, but it could be more than one time a year if the costs of these items increase. The rent would also likely increase yearly. If the lease is a gross lease, you will have one monthly rental payment that would increase (most likely) yearly.

What's permitted alterations in a commercial lease?
I am a small business owner looking to rent a commercial space for the first time. I am considering signing a commercial lease and want to know what kind of alterations are allowed in the agreement. I would like to avoid any potential legal issues or disputes in the future by clarifying what is permitted before signing the lease.
Moss S.
Usually permitted alterations are cosmetic, and non-structural in nature. Often times the Landlord will require the Tenant to submit plans, or in the alternative the lease will describe the fit and finish that would be allowed.

What's the entire agreement clause in a commercial lease?
I am a small business owner who recently signed a commercial lease for my business premises. I am concerned about the “entire agreement” clause in the lease, as I am not sure what it covers and what the implications are for me and my business. I am looking for clarification on the clause and any potential risks associated with it.
Matthew S.
This is a contractual provision which aims to prevent the party relying on it from being liable for any statements or representations (including pre-contractual representations) except as expressly set out in the agreement. It generally precludes the introduction of parol evidence or evidences of other agreements that are not in writing.
