"Unless a small business owner operates a business out of their home, or owns the building from which their shingle dangles, they need to lease commercial space. For the typical owner, this
process can be daunting -- and cluttered with costly, potential pitfalls. With Negotiate the Best Lease for Your Business, entrepreneurs can proceed with confidence. This practical handbook
explains how to analyze space needs and then go about finding the ideal location at the best price. Readers learn how to: * determine the real cost of renting * negotiate with an experienced
landlord * read the small print in a lease -- and protect themselves if the landlord presents a one-sided lease * allocate the responsibility -- and cost -- of fixing up the space * deal with a
contractor during remodeling * end a lease early * share the space with a sub-tenant * respond to an eviction notice * problem solve without hiring a lawyer.Comprehensive and, as always,
written in plain English, Negotiate the Best Lease for Your Business is essential for entrepreneurs on the hunt for a fair and workable lease."
