The terms and conditions of each commercial lease are going to be slightly different depending upon the type of lease and the party's intentions, as well as the use of the property. The common elements of a commercial lease agreement form includes: the names of the landlord and tenant, the property address, the lease term, the lease amount and any deposits. A commercial lease term can either be short term or long term. The rental amount is usually paid monthly. In some commercial leases, rent is paid based upon square footage. There are different types of commercial leases. For instance, a gross commercial lease requires the tenant to pay a fixed monthly rental amount. Other types of commercial leases include a double net lease, which requires the tenant to pay property taxes and insurance. A triple net lease requires the tenant to pay taxes, insurance and common area (CAM) charges. A quadruple net lease requires the tenant to pay the property taxes, insurance, CAM charges and utilities. Both the tenant and the landlord may each decide to have their attorneys negotiate on their behalf or at least have their attorneys review the commercial lease agreement form before they execute it and finalize the transaction.
