Tenant Improvement Allowance Agreement
A Tenant Improvement Allowance Agreement defines funding and construction terms for tenant space modifications. This playbook provides negotiation insights on payment schedules, approval rights, and completion standards.
Assignment & Subletting
Negotiation strategy
Negotiate for clear consent procedures with specific timelines to ensure flexibility in business operations. Aim to include criteria that prevent unreasonable withholding of consent.
Ensure that any assignment or subletting does not compromise the financial stability of the premises. Require financial documentation from potential assignees or sublessees.
