FAQ
A commercial lease refers to the leasing of commercial property used for large scale operations. These include offices, industrial sites and warehouses where there is no retail activity.
Another difference between retail and commercial leases are the costs. In a retail lease, tenants and landlords are responsible for their own expenses. Conversely, it’s not uncommon for tenants to pay for the landlord’s legal costs in commercial leases.
If you would like more information regarding commercial or retail leases, please don’t hesitate to contact our commercial lease lawyers today.
Signing a commercial lease agreement doesn’t usually happen in a flash. The amount of time it can take to finalise the details depends on the complexity of the lease. It can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months to negotiate a lease agreement that protects both the landlord and tenant’s best interests.
When looking for commercial property in Melbourne, it’s highly recommended to get an expert commercial property lawyer to review the lease before you sign it. That way, you fully understand the terms and financial obligations from the outset.
Anyone can sign a commercial lease. However, doing so without guidance from an experienced commercial lease lawyer is unwise. Leases often include finicky details related to contract law. So it’s best to have a knowledgeable lawyer by your side, making sure you get the best deal possible for yourself.
In addition, hiring a professional commercial lease lawyer will ensure that several important issues are clarified before signing the contract.
Key questions include:
- What is the duration of the lease and the terms for renewing it?
- Who bears the cost of water usage, electricity and other expenses?
- How are repairs and maintenance performed, and by which party?
- Is the landlord or tenant responsible for fixtures and fit-outs?
If the above issues are not clarified in the lease, disputes may arise. In that case, you may need to hire a commercial lease lawyer.
