There are many different types of commercial leases a business owner may enter into with a landlord.
Before making or accepting an offer to lease a commercial property, you should consult an attorney to make certain that your interests are represented in the negotiation process. Some examples of commercial leases are:
Fixed leases:
A fixed lease is much like a typical residential lease. In a fixed lease, the parties agree to a specific amount of rent for a fixed period of time.
Step leases:
In a step lease, the parties agree to increase the rent a certain amount yearly. The step lease is meant to acknowledge the potential cost increases the landlord may incur.
Gross leases:
In a gross lease, the tenant will pay a set periodic (or fixed term) rent to the landlord. The landlord in a gross lease will agree to pay for some or all of the operating costs of the business.
