Commercial Property Leasing, Scotland

Commercial Property Leasing

Many businesses choose a commercial lease rather than buying premises. This can give more flexibility in your premises, which is important if your business looks to expand.

A commercial property lease also involves lower initial outgoings, which is an important consideration, especially for new businesses.

However, it does mean you need to be certain of what you’re signing up for so you can make sure it meets your future ambitions as well.

At Jones Whyte, our commercial property solicitors will be able to advise on commercial leases for tenants and property owners, helping to ensure you receive the best outcomes while supporting you in understanding the full commercial leasing process.

We also provide specialist advice for commercial landlords and have experienced commercial lease lawyers to assist with all aspects of your lease agreements, including those involving commercial tenants.

What Is Included In The Commercial Leasing Process?

Prior to completion and signing of a lease, missives must be concluded for the commercial lease, which is constituted by an offer, an acceptance and any letters to agree on the terms of the lease.

There is no entry to the premises without signed missives. The offer will usually contain a number of clauses and conditions, which can vary depending on the property and the wishes of the tenant and the landlord.

Once all clauses are agreed upon, a legally binding contract exists and neither party can back out unless both parties agree.

We know that every lease is different, so our team of commercial leasing lawyers will work with you every step of the way to ensure you understand what is happening and are comfortable with how the contractual agreement is progressing.
