Not every important term in a commercial contract waves a flag. Sometimes the language that matters most is the language that looks perfectly ordinary.
Take addendums and special provisions, for example. They're routine, easy to skim past, and usually harmless. But every so often, one quietly shifts costs, moves a deadline, trims a remedy, or creates obligations that were not a part of the original deal.
"As is" language is the same story. These terms are common in commercial leases, but they should not be ignored. Depending on how they are written, they may limit your ability to request repairs, credits, or remedies after certain issues are discovered.
The good news is that a careful read catches these red flags before they become a headache. That is why our team is here to help. Just give us a call, and we can find a time to connect.
