Commercial Lease Agreement

Leasing out an office, a shop, a restaurant space, a workshop or a warehouse? Tell AI Lawyer about the premises, the tenant and the rent, and it writes a commercial lease built for your deal — gross, net or triple net — instead of a blank form you have to adapt. Your lease sets out the premises and what they may be used for, the term and any renewal or purchase options, the rent and how it rises, who pays taxes, insurance, utilities and maintenance, what either side may build or alter, whether the tenant can assign or sublet, and what happens on default. Also called a business lease, commercial rental agreement, office lease, retail lease or industrial lease.

Pick your state, answer a few questions, and your commercial lease is ready to download, email or print.

What goes into your lease

A commercial lease agreement is the contract between the owner of business premises and the company or person renting them. Unlike a home rental, almost everything in it is negotiable and little is filled in by statute — so if a point is not written down, it usually is not covered. That is why the details matter: the use clause, the cost split and the renewal terms decide what the space really costs over five years.

Every commercial lease AI Lawyer writes covers:

The landlord, the tenant and any guarantor
The premises, the permitted use, parking and any exclusivity
Term, early possession, renewal and purchase options
Rent, built-in increases, late charges and the security deposit
Who pays taxes, insurance, utilities and maintenance — gross, net or triple net
Improvements, fixtures, assignment and subleasing
Default, notice periods, inspections and who pays legal costs

Office, retail, restaurant, industrial or warehouse, a single unit or a whole building — the questions adapt to your deal, and the lease comes out written for your state.
