Commercial Leases: Structuring Tenant Build-Out, Improvement, Maintenance, and Repair Provisions

Commercial Leases
Some of the most overlooked but potentially costly lease provisions address pre-leasing improvements, build-out, repair, and maintenance issues. Provisions regarding the build-out of premises must address cost issues, completion dates and delays, warranties, and defects.
