Get Early AccessNegotiating a commercial lease is nothing like signing a residential rental agreement. The lease structure alone, whether triple net, gross, or modified gross, determines who pays for property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. Get the allocation wrong and a business can face thousands in unexpected costs every year. CAM charges, rent escalation clauses, and tenant improvement terms all require careful drafting that protects both the landlord's investment and the tenant's ability to operate.
This commercial lease agreement prompt generates a full lease document tailored to your deal. Select the [LEASE_TYPE] to set the expense allocation framework, choose the [PROPERTY_TYPE] for your space, and enter [BASE_RENT] along with [PERMITTED_USE] to define the financial and operational terms. The output covers everything from rent escalation schedules and CAM reconciliation to default remedies and assignment restrictions.
If you need a property management agreement for handling the ongoing landlord-tenant relationship after signing, that prompt handles management fees, maintenance authority, and reporting. For tenants considering a partial space transfer, the sublease agreement generator addresses the three-party dynamics of commercial subleases. Open this prompt in the Dock Editor to fill in your variables and produce a ready-to-review lease draft.
Paste this prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or the Dock Editor. Select [LEASE_TYPE] to define how operating expenses are split. Triple net (NNN) passes taxes, insurance, and CAM to the tenant. Full-service gross bundles everything into rent. Modified gross splits costs between the parties.
Fill in [LANDLORD_NAME], [LANDLORD_ADDRESS], [TENANT_NAME], and [PROPERTY_ADDRESS]. Choose the [PROPERTY_TYPE] that matches your space. The AI uses these inputs to set the correct legal framing, premises description, and party identification sections.
Enter [BASE_RENT] for the monthly amount and [LEASE_START_DATE] for the commencement date. Describe the tenant's business in [PERMITTED_USE] so the lease restricts the space to that operation. Select [IMPROVEMENTS] to define whether the landlord provides a build-out allowance or the tenant handles construction.

Adjust any dollar amounts or timelines the AI set as defaults. Have a commercial real estate attorney review the final document before either party signs.
