The commercial lease or 3,6,9 lease is the most common form of lease for companies wishing to set up a business or rent office space.
It involves renting premises for commercial, industrial or craft use, regardless of the nationality of the tenant.
For the tenant, it can be considered a protective status. It provides for capped rents and the right to renew the lease.
Although the initial cost of the rent remains unrestricted, the same does not apply to rent reviews, current leases or lease renewals, for which possible increases are strictly controlled.
Termination terms are very specific to this contract and very well defined. Commonly referred to as “3-6-9 leases”, they correspond to three-year periods that structure the total duration of the contract. At the end of each of these periods, as a tenant, you will be able to terminate your lease, as long as no firm date has been set.
However, it is important not only to keep an eye on the deadlines, but also to prepare for the future in such a way as to define your direction: keep your premises without renegotiating them, keep them by renegotiating the lease clauses or financial conditions, or decide to vacate your workspace.
Between you and me, a commercial lease is a bit of a brake on the growth – or decline – of your business. You have to manage everything: the walls, the furniture, the internet connection, the cleaning, the relationship with other service providers, the relationship with the landlord, and all that over a long period of time…
