Lease

A lease agreement sets forth the rights and obligations of the lessor and lessee with regards to the lease of real property. Typical terms include the location of the leased premises, the term of the lease, the rent and the security deposit. A lease can also specify terms under which the agreement may be terminated, as well as the rights of the lessee to renew the lease after the expiration of its initial term.

When a tenant vacates commercial property before the lease term has expired, it may be able to rent the premises to a third party.
