Representing Landlord - Tenant selling business. Language for new lease

Eileen Baston
Posted

I represent Landlord in shopping center with multiple tenants.  Barbershop tenant is selling his business to another barbershop. Landlord has approved.  I will draft new lease.  However, current Tenant has one year left on his lease to be assumed by new tenant. Assignment is in place.  Do I treat this like an entirely new lease with new tenant? Do I include language in new Lease or is this just covered in the Assignment and include the Assignment as an exhibit...Do I just work off the original lease with original Barbershop tenant.  This is is new to me.  Thank you for any guidance.

Are you simply assigning the current lease (1 year left) or are you writing an extension for a longer term beyond the one year in addition to the assignment? If extending for a longer term I would simply write the longer term, particularly if you are adding different terms.
