Retail & Commercial Leases – Sale and Purchase of a Business

Retail Leases

Retail Leases relate to leases over retail premises.

To determine whether a lease is a retail lease or not, it is necessary to refer to the Retail Leases Act.

If a lease falls under  the Retail Leases Act there are advantages to the tenant. The tenant doesn’t have to pay for the landlord’s legal costs and there is a significant duty to disclose the outgoings relevant to the lease and the premise.

Commercial Leases

Leases that are not covered by the Retail Leases Act are generally referred to as a Commercial Lease.
