Hello,

A tenant who operates a market plans to sell the business this year. The lease currently has 6 years left with a 5-year option. The business owner is asking for an addition 5-year option, to make it a 6-5-5.

If you were the property owner, would you negotiate the lease and its option directly with the business owner or would you bring in an expert to negotiate for you instead.
of course, you would expect to pay out of your pocket if you bring in someone.

The goal for the prop. owner is to maximize the cash flow potential of the IP.
