Landlord Forms doesn’t just offer residential forms for landlords – we offer commercial forms too and to no surprise, our most popular commercial landlord form is the commercial lease agreement.
Commercial Lease Agreements can be very tricky to create however that’s why we do the hard work for you.
Our commercial lease agreement form is very easy to fill in. Rather than spending hours editing an existing commercial lease agreement template, you can use our system to create your own customized commercial lease agreement which will have you creating one in mere minutes.
How it works is very simply – it prompts you to input all the necessary data. So it will ask you questions such as the landlords name and address, and the tenants name and address and the premises address. It will also ask various questions such as the square footage of the premises, if pets are allowed on the property, if parking information should be detailed, if the tenant can sublet any part of the premises and all of the details in regard to rent.s
It should take you no longer than ten minutes to fill in this data. Our system then takes this data and creates a completed commercial lease form for you – formatted all properly and with all the required information that needs to be in a commercial lease agreement.
If you’re happy with it then great – you can go ahead and print it. It’s possible you missed something however or want something changed and no problem there – you can of course do unlimited edits on your commercial lease agreement until you are happy with it. It’s a very easy process to do.
You can also test the form out as you go – put in the landlord and tenants names for example, then preview it to see what it looks like. Just so you can get an idea of what is being filled in etc.
We’ve made creating a commercial lease agreement as easy as humanly possible so it is not a hassle in any way for you to create a commercial lease.
What To Include in A Commercial Lease Agreement:
That’s one nice thing about our system – you don’t have to ask yourself this sort of question. Our system knows what goes in a commercial lease agreement and prompts you for all the required data.
However here is the information that is required from you when you go to create our simple commercial lease agreement:
- Landlord Details: Our system will ask you how many landlords there are and then prompt you for the name and address of the landlord(s)
- Tenant Details: Our system allows up to four tenants and it will prompt you for the name and address of the tenant(s)
- Premises Details: Along with the address of the location, you should list what type of premises it is. For example if it is a retail store commercial lease agreement you are creating, you should list that within the form. Also the square footage and the details about the business that are renting the premises and what they are expected to do there. That way you as a landlord are protected in case they start doing things on the property outside of what they originally stated. Along with prompting you for all this information, our system will also allow you insert any additional details about the property that you wish.
- Premises Specific Details: Along with the broad details about the property, you need to provide information about what is expected of the tenant on the proprety, and what is not permitted. Our system has all the common Q&A for you in regard to that and we cover everything. For example we ask if smoking is permitted. Most often not in these cases but we still let you provide details if smoking IS permitted. You should also put in details such as whether pets are allowed on the premises or not, detail information about signage, whether the tenant is permitted to make improvements or modify the property in any way, as well as details about parking. If subletting is a possibility you also need to provide specifics on that. The landlord also needs to assign how many days notice needs to be given before they enter the premises for a non-emergency situation.
- Commercial Lease Agreement Terms: It needs to be stated whether this is actually a commercial lease, or if it is a commercial rental agreement you are creating. Either way our system can handle it. The difference of course is that a commercial lease agreement begins and ends on specific dates while a commercial rental agreement has a specific start date however will not have an end date – termination is when it ends. You can and should provide termination details too in regard to notices such as a notice for a breach in the lease.
- Rent Payment Details: You also need a very detailed section in regard to rent payments. How often the rent is paid, the amount, if the tenant pays a percentage on the sales or profits of the business. How many days notice are required prior to raising rent, specifics about taxes, how payments can be made, when it is to be made and where.
- Rent Penalties: You may also wish to outline a section on rent penalties such as if there is a security deposit, a penalty for returned/bounced checks, a late payment penalty etc.
- Additional Tenant Responsibilities: You also may need to outline what the tenant is responsible for. For example if they are responsible for any utilities or the internet or any duties or maintenance on the property. If you are providing appliances, furnishings or amenities that should be mentioned too.
- Additions and Appendixes: You may wish to include appendixes with the commercial lease agreement or an inspection report or blueprints to the premises – or even list an exclusive use clause for tenant protection. All of that must be listed if so.
That covers the majority of what should be included.
