Suppose you rent commercial premises<\/a> in England and Wales, but they no longer suit your business. In that case, you may consider how you can get out of your commercial lease before the end of the lease term and the potential costs if you did. This article will help you understand the different options you have when ending your commercial lease early.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do You Have a Break Clause?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first thing you should do if you want to get out of your commercial lease early is to read your lease document carefully. You may have something referred to as a \u2018break clause\u2019. A break clause allows you or your landlord to end your lease before the end of the fixed term of your lease. There will always be conditions that you have to meet to do this. For example, it may be at a particular point in your tenancy or after a certain time. In addition, there are often specific ways to communicate notice to your landlord.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, it may include a provision that requires you to pay a sum of money to your landlord in return for agreeing to let you end the lease early.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n Continue reading this article below the form\n <\/i>\n<\/a>\n
