In the CRE Vault with Mike and Marc
Not Lawyers, Just Lease Nerds (With Monster Stories) (S3:E6)
This week, Mike and Marc crack open the mysterious, often misunderstood world of commercial leases—aka that stack of legal paper that decides who pays to fix the HVAC and whether you’re allowed to hang your neon llama sign.
They’re not attorneys (disclaimer: seriously, they are NOT attorneys), but they have read leases so many times their eyeballs have legally changed shape. Tune in for real talk about what’s in a lease, what landlords might actually do versus what they’re required to do, and why your Letter of Intent is basically the lease’s awkward first draft.
Plus: the guys share some hilarious horror stories from the field—including one terrifying property tour featuring a life-size monster mannequin that almost sent Mike running for the exit. 😱
Whether you’re new to the lease game or you’ve been burned by vague repair clauses before, this episode is your survival guide—with just enough laughs to keep you sane.
