Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, whether the premises are a Retail Shop, other commercial properties, or even residential tenancies, we can assist you with the preparation of, review of, and amendment of leases.
Retail shop leases have specific requirements, which affect how much rent the landlord can recover, what sort of rental increase provisions are permitted, and much more. If this is an area which may affect you, it is vital that you obtain expert advice BEFORE you sign.
Goods and Services Tax has a very large impact upon this area. From 1 July 2000, GST will apply to lease rents. If the lease does not include a provision for passing on the GST to the tenant, the Landlord will have to pay the GST. Do not attempt to "guesswork" your way through this legal minefield.
If you are looking to lease a property, then you should ensure that you budget for Stamp Duty.
