What is an Option To Lease?
An option to lease is a contract between a landlord and a tenant that grants the tenant the right to purchase a property at the end of the lease term. The contract details who each party is, how long the lease term is good for, and how long the tenant has to decide whether they want to purchase the property at the end of their lease term. Sometimes, the option to lease agreement also states the buying price for the property, although this portion is not required to be included.
The purpose of the option to lease is to sweeten the deal for tenants looking to purchase within a few years of leasing a property. Although this is a nice perk, it's important to note that tenants are only given the option to purchase and are not obligated to do so.

Tim E.
I help small businesses, entrepreneurs, and business owners draft, review, and negotiate the agreements behind their operations and transactions. My work includes service agreements and MSAs, LLC operating and shareholder agreements, business purchase documents, commercial leases, independent contractor agreements, and NDAs. My approach is practical: understand what you are trying to accomplish, identify the terms that materially affect the deal, and deliver clear, usable documents without unnecessary complexity. For reviews, I focus on meaningful risks and proposed solutions, with redlines and plain-English explanations. I offer fixed-fee services for defined projects, from a single contract review to a broader business transaction. Each proposal identifies the deliverables, revision scope, and expected turnaround so you know what is included before we begin.
"Excellent experience with Tim on my relatively complex EULA for a suite of network appliance products. Tim was very fair with pricing, responsive, diligent, thorough, technically knowledgeable, took the time to address all my questions and concerns, and finished (with revision) on schedule and budget. Great experience overall and I'll definitely be using Tim for more work in the future with my business. I'll also be using Contract Counsel and recommending it to everyone I know as well! THANK YOU! -Devin"
