Why Smart Entrepreneurs Invest in
Commercial Lease Review
As a small business owner, you've worked hard to build your dream.
Are you unknowingly putting it all at risk with your commercial lease?
The $180,000 Gamble (Example)
Signing a 5-year lease at $3,000 per month is a $180,000 commitment. Would you make a $180,000 investment without due diligence?
Of course not.
Yet many business owners do exactly that when they sign a lease without professional review.
Hidden Traps in Innocent-Looking Clauses
Commercial leases often include harmless-looking phrases like "the tenant agrees to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations" that could cost you thousands in unexpected ADA modifications or other legal compliance issues.
​
Many “standard” commercial leases include aggressive indemnification clauses that shift liability for certain damages and losses onto the tenant, even if they were not at fault.
​
Poorly written triple net leases can saddle you with skyrocketing common area expenses, eating into your profits year after year.
The True Cost of "Saving" on Legal Fees
Skipping a legal review to save a few thousand dollars is like not investing in a solid foundation before building a house. Don't build your business on an uncertain foundation.
