What is Commercial Real Estate Leasing?
Commercial real estate leasing involves renting a property designed for business purposes. Unlike residential leases, commercial leases are more complex and tailored to meet business needs. These spaces can range from office buildings and retail stores to industrial warehouses and specialized facilities.
Key components of commercial leasing include:
Lease Terms and Agreements
- Commercial leases often span longer periods, typically 3–10 years, with options for renewal or early termination.
- The terms dictate rental costs, escalation clauses, maintenance responsibilities, and more.
Types of Leases
- Full-Service Lease: Rent includes utilities, maintenance, and other expenses.
- Net Lease: Tenant pays base rent plus additional costs like taxes, insurance, and maintenance.
- Modified Gross Lease: A hybrid of the two, where costs are split between tenant and landlord.
Space Types
- Office Space: Ideal for corporate headquarters or regional offices.
- Retail Space: Tailored to consumer-facing businesses.
- Industrial/Warehouse Space: For manufacturing, storage, and logistics operations.
Understanding these details ensures businesses find the best leasing solution for their operations, which is where Galetti excels.
