Leasing

House, Key, Real Estate, Security, Apartment, Building

A commercial lease is a contract between a landlord and a tenant for the rental of commercial property. Before signing a commercial lease, it is important to obtain advice to understand the lease contract that defines the rights and responsibilities of each party.

We guide and advise in matters relating to commercial and retail leasing for lessors and lessees with respect to:

  • developing contract terms and conditions for lessors
  • reviewing contract terms and conditions for lessees
  • restrictions on terms of the lease and renewal conditions
  • rent increases
  • sublease permissions
  • property maintenance and expense responsibilities
  • evictions
  • holding of security bonds
  • disputes arising between lessors and lessees and more.
 

Landlords and tenants have rights and obligations which are set out in the Retail Leases Act. We draft and advise on retail leases.

Roser Lawyers can help you to ensure that your commercial or retail lease agreements support your business objectives and navigate any problems should a dispute arise.
