About This Course
Conducting due diligence is a vital part of the commercial leasing process. It allows both tenants and landlords to make informed decisions by thoroughly assessing the financial, legal, technical, and commercial suitability of a property. Poorly negotiated lease agreements can result in significant risks for businesses, making expert guidance essential from the outset. With support from professional consultants—such as project managers, surveyors, and engineers—stakeholders can better understand the opportunities and challenges a property presents before signing on the dotted line.
