\n Conclusion of commercial leases\n <\/h3>\n \n \n <\/div>\n\n
\n \n\n

The commercial lease agreement is the \u2018law\u2019 for landlords and tenants – it must be drawn up individually and thoroughly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A commercial lease agreement regulates the legal relationship between the landlord and the tenant. For both parties, there are legal, business, and financial aspects involved. In addition, there is complex legislation to comply with. Among others, the commercial lease agreement should address:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Non-termination period
\u25cf Payment of rent and services in addition to rent
\u25cf Rent adjustment
\u25cf Transfer rights
\u25cf Distribution of maintenance and renewal obligations<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to ensure that you have a sound and well-drafted agreement, among other things to avoid legal disputes. This applies to both commercial tenants and landlords. We have extensive experience in drafting commercial lease agreements, as well as reviewing and commenting on agreements drafted by other clerks.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Residential and commercial tenancy law in relation to:<\/h3><\/div>
\n

Market rent for commercial leases<\/p><\/div>

The amount of the rent is crucial in commercial lease agreements. The parties determine the rent by agreement, but it can be adjusted according to the rules of the Commercial Lease Act if it deviates significantly from the market rent. Assessing the market requires insight and advice before giving notice of a rent increase\/decrease is essential. Compliance with notification rules is crucial for validity, and disputes about market rent can be costly in terms of inspections, estimates, and documentation. At Focus Advokater, we have experience with cases concerning market rent in commercial leases and can assist with the assessment and implementation of your case.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Tenant’s breach of contract<\/strong><\/strong><\/p><\/div>

It is often complicated to assess whether a tenant has breached the lease agreement \u2013 and what the consequences and sanctions may be. If you, as a landlord, make the wrong decision, it can lead to a poor relationship with the tenant, as well as having financial consequences. Get an assessment of the case from our specialists before you take action.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Optimising your rental property<\/strong><\/strong><\/p><\/div>

Maintaining and improving a rental property can lead to greater value and satisfied tenants. The ability to adjust the rent also has an impact on the sale value. However, tenancy law contains complex rules that must be observed when making changes to the property that affect the tenants. Consult us when you want to optimise.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n

Basis for determining rent<\/span>

The provisions of the tenancy act on rent determination<\/h2>
\n

When buying and selling residential rental properties and in disputes with tenants, it is crucial to know the correct basis for setting rent. The Danish Tenancy Act contains complex rules, and errors in setting rent can significantly affect the property’s liquidity and return. At Focus Advokater, we have specialist knowledge of tenancy law matters, which enables us to quickly and efficiently identify relevant issues and save you time and money, regardless of the nature of the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
