What is an Offer to Lease?
When your business has outgrown the garage and you're ready to move on up, an Offer to Lease is your first step to securing a commercial space. It sets the foundation for the real lease agreement and ensures you and the landlord are on the same page.
An Offer to Lease includes most of vital information that will be in your official lease, but it gives you room for extras and helps define parameters before you sing the official document. Be sure to include anything you'll need the landlord to take care of before you start writing checks. After all, you don't want to be the one fixing that iffy wiring in the break room, so make sure you know about any potential issues before you get in too deep. In the offer, you'll stipulate the biggies like the length of the lease and rent. Don't sign and offer unless you're sure you want the space: an offer to lease is binding.
When to use an Offer to Lease:
- You want to make an offer to a landlord or property manager to lease commercial property.
- You want to outline the basic terms of the agreement before signing a formal Commercial Lease.
- You and want to make offers and counter-offers during your lease negotiations.
