How do commercial leases differ from residential leases?

Commercial leases are generally locked up for a much longer term then residential leases, and it's much, much harder to break a commercial lease.

One big difference between commercial leases and residential leases that a lot of people don't realize is that commercial leases are not subject to many of the consumer protection laws that residential leases are. Make sure you know what you're getting into before signing.

Most commercial leases are NNN which require the lessee to pay all utilities, insurance, and property taxes. Most residential leases are on a Gross rental basis and do not directly pay NNN charges. Commercial Appraiser http://www.harriscompanyrec.com
