A New Hampshire commercial lease agreement is a legal document solidifying a landlord-tenant arrangement so the landlord can rent commercial property to the tenant. The tenant gets to conduct business within legal limits, and the landlord can earn profits via the rental revenue they receive.
This contract includes provisions for exclusivity, subleasing, late payments, monthly payments, landlord access, and damages to the premises. Both parties will participate in the negotiation process to protect their respective interests and rights.
