Making Certain the Commercial Rent is Appropriate for Your Company

You should thoroughly study the details of a leasing agreement before signing it to ensure that it satisfies your company’s demands.

First, think about the rent price (be sure you can afford it) and the lease period. If at all possible, avoid signing a five- or ten-year lease; your company may grow quicker than you anticipate, or the location may not work out for you. A short-term lease with opportunities for renewal is usually the safest option.

Consider the space as well. If your company requires alterations to the existing space, such as adding cubicles, raising a loading dock, or rewiring for better communication, be sure you (or the landlord) can make the necessary changes.

Other, less visible aspects of the lease may be just as important to your company’s performance. If you plan your camera repair business to rely heavily on walk-in customers, for example, be sure your lease allows you to put up a sign that can be seen from the street. Alternatively, if you expect to be the only sandwich shop in a new business complex, make sure your agreement prohibits the landlord from leasing space to a competitor.

Last Words

The normal length of a commercial lease is three to five years. This ensures that the landlords will be able to return their investment through rental income. Leases are frequently negotiable, however for the sake of the rental business, landlords frequently enable modification of the area in commercial leases. This means that landlords put a lot more money into commercial properties than they do in residential ones.
