Leases 101: Understanding the Language That Drives Value

When it comes to commercial real estate, the lease is more than just paperwork — it’s the engine that drives property value. For new investors, understanding how to read and evaluate a lease can be the difference between a winning deal and a costly mistake.

Join us as Renee Newland breaks down the fundamentals of commercial leases in a beginner-friendly way. We’ll cover:

✅ The major types of leases and what they mean for investors
✅ Key lease terms that directly impact property value
✅ Common clauses that can make or break a deal
✅ How leases affect financing, valuation, and resale potential

This topic is important for investors to understand how they can protect themselves and how different terms affect property value.
