Before you sign a lease, verify the property’s zoning and licensing requirements, occupancy limits, and any permits or landlord consents needed so the location can legally operate as your type of facility. Analyze all costs — base rent, CAM/maintenance charges, utilities, security deposit, rent escalations, tenant improvement allowances — and budget for build-out and insurance so you understand the true monthly and startup expenses. Negotiate the lease term, renewal and termination rights, subleasing, signage and hours of operation, and landlord responsibilities (repairs, scope of work). Have a real estate attorney review the lease before you sign. #landlord #tenant #rules #hours #costs
