Offer to Lease Negotiation

Don't let the terms in a lease agreement throw you for a loop. Read on for our tips and tricks to avoid getting stuck in a lease that doesn't meet your needs!

Offer to Lease Negotiation

The offer to lease negotiation defines 90% of the business terms and conditions for your new venture. The terms and conditions will govern how well you do for the next 30 years. The offer is an extremely important step. Our service will guide you through the hundreds of tenancy terms and conditions that will come to define the value of your operation. What you do not know can and will hurt you!
Building a business based on a flawed offer to lease is building on an unstable foundation that will lead to trouble. Administer your position wisely before proceeding with an offer to lease. It’s very challenging, if not impossible, to retroactively change lease terms and conditions once they are agreed to.

What is the Offer to Lease?

The offer to lease is a binding, conditional, summary of the fundamental lease terms and conditions of the tenancy. It describes at least 90% of the tenancy terms and conditions, and is the most important lease document you will ever sign.

Why is it important?

It’s important to understand that, unless you think of a detail or opportunity at the time of offer to lease negotiation, you may end up wishing you had thought of it years down the road. The offer to lease IS the time to have the facilities you need in the future negotiated into your leasing arrangement.

When do you start creating your Offer to Lease?

Offer to lease negotiations should be integrated with site selection, since the site and lease terms are related. You need to find a site and check out the business terms and conditions, including the lease. If a good lease cannot be negotiated, then you need to find a new site.
