Description

Some of the most overlooked but potentially costly lease provisions address pre-leasing improvements, build-out, the role of financing in construction, and future repair and maintenance issues. Provisions regarding the build-out of a premises should: address cost/financing issues; consider recent market trends; set realistic completion dates incorporating possible delays; and review future maintenance and repair obligations to ensure that all lease provisions work together to avoid costly mistakes.

Listen as our authoritative panel of commercial real estate practitioners discusses drafting and negotiating lease provisions regarding pre-commencement improvement, build-out, financial considerations, and allocation of risk related to maintenance and repair.
