How-To Exit Your Commercial Lease Early and Get a New Tenant to Take Over Quickly? #AskRealtorMani
✅ Review your lease contract — most commercial agreements DO allow takeover with landlord approval.
???????? Speak to your landlord early — transparency increases your chances of approval.
???? Prepare a marketing package for takeover: floor plan, photos, unit specs, rental terms.
???? Hire a commercial agent experienced in F&B, office, medical, retail, or industrial niches.
???? Discuss whether a takeover premium is suitable if your unit is renovated or fitted out.
???? Ensure your lawyer or agent handles assignment agreements professionally to avoid liability.
????️ Stay current on rental payments while the takeover is being arranged — keeps your record clean.
