terms are discussed and agreed between the landlord (or their agent) and the prospective tenant. It\u2019s essentially the \u201cdeal-making\u201d phase that sets the foundation for the lease document itself.<br \/><br \/>Here\u2019s what it usually involves:<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Heads of Agreement (HOA) or Term Sheet:<br \/>\u00a0 A non-binding summary outlining the core terms both sides have tentatively agreed on, such as rent, incentives, lease term, options to renew, outgoings, fit-out responsibilities, and commencement date.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Due Diligence:<br \/>\u00a0 We inspect the site with the tenant , complete a services report ,review building compliance, and assess suitability (size, access, amenities, zoning, etc).<\/p><p>All this information allows us to determine what we should ask the landlord for.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Negotiating Commercial Terms:<br \/>\u00a0 This includes rental rates, escalation clauses, rent-free periods, contributions toward fit-out, signage rights, and make-good obligations.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Negotiating Legal Terms:<br \/>\u00a0 Once the HOA is signed, lawyers draft and refine the lease document. This can include clauses about assignment\/subletting, maintenance responsibilities, insurance, default provisions, and early termination rights.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Fit-out &amp; Access Arrangements:<br \/>\u00a0 The tenant may negotiate early access for fit-out works or landlord contributions toward construction costs.<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Final Review &amp; Execution:<br \/>\u00a0 Once all terms are agreed, the lease is finalised, signed, and any deposit or security bond is paid.<br \/><br \/>In short: Pre-lease negotiation is where the real value is won or lost. It\u2019s the time to lock in favourable terms before you\u2019re bound by the lease \u2014 after signing, you\u2019re mostly just living with what you agreed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pre-Lease Negotiation Our Consulting Services What is Pre-Lease Negotiation?
