The Commercial Lease Agreement is a fundamental document in Hong Kong's commercial property market, used whenever a property owner (landlord) agrees to rent out commercial space to a business tenant. This document is essential for establishing a legally binding relationship between the parties and must comply with Hong Kong's property and contract laws, particularly the Landlord and Tenant (Consolidation) Ordinance. It covers crucial aspects such as rental terms, duration, maintenance obligations, and permitted use of the premises, while also addressing specific requirements for commercial properties in Hong Kong such as management fees, government rates, and building regulations. The agreement is typically more complex than residential leases due to the commercial nature of the relationship and often includes provisions for rent reviews, tenant improvements, and specific business use restrictions.
