At P.A. Duffy and Co., our commercial solicitors aim to make the process of dealing with commercial property as straightforward as possible.

What are Leases of Commercial Property?

A commercial lease is a legally binding contract which is formed between a business tenant (lessee) and a landlord (lessor) subject to a set of terms agreed. Often these are initially agreed as what is commonly known as ‘Heads of Terms’ and those ‘Heads’ are later incorporated into the lease. The ‘Heads of Terms’ are important as they determine matters such as the rent payable, the usage allowed, the term of the lease, rent review and rights granted to the Tenant or rights reserved by the Landlord over the Property.

The leasing of Commercial Property is also governed by a piece of legislation known as the Business Tenancies (NI) Order 1996 – it is essential that this legislation is considered and advised upon when entering into a commercial lease.

Commercial lease agreements are commonly made in relation to:

  • Retail Units/Shops
  • Warehousing
  • Workshops
  • Factories
  • Yards
  • Pubs & Restaurants
