Negotiating And Granting A Lease

Negotiating And Granting A Lease

When a landlord and tenant attempt to negotiate the terms of a new commercial lease, both parties will have specific goals in mind. The landlord wants a stable revenue stream and the assurance that the property will be left in excellent shape at the lease’s conclusion. The tenant desires freedom to conduct business as usual, to keep costs as low as possible, and to have some flexibility if their needs alter. Effective negotiation of a business lease requires the ability to recognise and reconcile these divergent perspectives.

Dealing with and negotiating a lease can not only be stressful, but highly disruptive. Whether you are an individual, entrepreneur, company or partnership, the process of drafting a licence can be complex and time consuming. This is why it is important you are able to speak to legal experts who can provide all the guidance you need to emerge from a negotiation with the result you are after.

The team at Blackstone is highly experienced in dealing with all forms of contract law and we always work very closely with our clients to ensure we fully understand the issues faced by them or their business. By working together, we can ensure we devise a pragmatic solution that meets your commercial objectives.
