In our ongoing series of blog posts, we have examined key negotiating points for tenants in triple net health care leases. We also have offered suggestions for certain lease provisions designed to protect tenants from overreaching and unfair expenses, overly burdensome obligations, and ambiguous terms with respect to the rights and responsibilities of the parties. These suggestions are intended to result in efficient lease negotiations and favorable lease terms from a tenant’s perspective.
In our previous blog posts, we considered the importance of negotiating initial terms and renewal terms, operating expense provisions, assignment and subletting terms, maintenance and repair obligations, holdover provisions and surrender terms. This latest blog post focuses on negotiating lease terms governing tenant improvement allowances. A tenant should negotiate for landlord to provide a tenant improvement allowance to prepare the leased premises for the tenant’s occupancy and should consider important factors including the amount of the tenant improvement allowance, whether tenant or landlord will complete the work, and how and when the tenant improvement allowance will be paid.
