Are you the type of person who tends to skim through contracts and legal agreements? Does the mere thought of reading all that fine print give you a migraine? If so, that is a habit that you need to talk yourself out of before you go shopping for your next commercial office lease. If your only past experience with leases has been in the realm of residential rental agreements, your introduction to commercial office leases may come as something of a surprise. Although residential leases are often fairly standard with few unusual clauses or demands, there is typically much more variation in the terms of commercial office leases. For this reason, some experts advise soliciting the input of an experienced commercial real estate broker or attorney before signing a commercial office lease. At the very least, force yourself to read every clause of the lease carefully before agreeing to the terms.
