A lease is a written contract outlining occupancy, rent, and durations. It establishes rights and duties for both sides and helps prevent disputes.
In California, the landlord typically handles major repairs, maintenance, and safety obligations, while tenants cover day-to-day upkeep as specified in the lease.
A commercial lease should clearly define rent, term, renewal options, maintenance responsibilities, and remedies for breach. It may also address access, assignments, and subleasing.
California limits on security deposits vary by property type, but many leases allow deposits up to two months’ rent for residential properties and more for commercial leases.
Leases commonly run for one to three years, with options to renew. Longer terms may require more detailed planning.
At the end of a lease, parties may renew, extend, or vacate. Proper notices help smooth transitions and avoid penalties.
Subleasing or assignment is allowed when permitted by the lease and state law; often requires landlord consent and specific terms.
Rent escalation can be fixed or CPI-based, with details in the lease and notices governing adjustments.
Remedies include rent acceleration, eviction, breaches of warranty, and specific performance as allowed by California law.
