Frequently Asked Questions

Technically speaking, you can rent a property with only an oral agreement. However, doing so is asking for trouble as verbal agreements are difficult, if not impossible, to enforce. If a dispute were to arise, a court would decide whose version of events to accept.

In the context of real estate, fixtures are any features that are sufficiently attached to the property that their removal would damage the property. For example, a commercial kitchen would fall under the category of fixtures in a business property setting.

The current tenant of a property can, if allowed, sublease the use of the property to a third party. The property's usage rights are transferred to the subletting tenant for a portion of the original lease term.

As a tenant, not only can you negotiate a lease agreement, but you absolutely should. Many landlords use a standard Commercial Lease Agreement with most of their tenants. But that agreement may not be beneficial for you or address your specific needs. Creating your own Commercial Lease Agreement with Swyft Forms gives you more control over what is and isn't part of the lease.

A Commercial Lease Agreement is legally enforceable, and, as such, usually cannot be changed after it is signed. If any changes are possible, they will be listed in the lease itself. This applies to both the tenant and the landlord.
