LEASING COMMERCIAL SPACE AS A TENANT: PART FOUR

AVOID RELOCATION PROVISIONS

Try to avoid a provision which would allow the landlord to relocate you to another space if it wishes. If it is unavoidable, ask for the right to comparable space with comparable access and visibility, the right to prevent the relocation if you reasonably believe the space is not comparable, and a promise that the landlord will pay every cost associated with the relocation including remodeling, moving, and publicizing the new location, and another promise that the relocation will occur during your slow season.
