In commercial real estate transactions, lease assignment provisions play a critical role in balancing the rights of landlords, tenants and potential assignees. Lease assignability clauses, which determine how and under what circumstances a tenant may transfer their leasehold interest to another party, are often heavily negotiated due to their potential impact on the property's control, value and long-term stability. From the tenant's perspective, flexibility in assignment can be essential for business growth or restructuring, while landlords typically seek to maintain oversight, continue to have financial assurances, and protect the integrity of the lease.
