Lease agreements are often the largest and longest commitments a small business ever signs.
Yet many business owners sign leases without fully understanding:
• Long-term financial exposure
• Personal guarantee risk
• Repair and maintenance obligations
• Rent escalations and hidden costs
• Termination and exit restrictions
Contract Risk Check helps you identify those risks before they’re locked in.

It helps you:
✔ Identify common lease red-flag clauses
✔ Understand financial and operational obligations
✔ Spot one-sided landlord protections
✔ Recognize long-term risks before you commit
This is education and awareness, not legal advice — giving you clarity without pressure.
✔ Lease-specific “Before You Sign” risk checklist

If you’re committing to space, rent, or guarantees — this is for you.
Many lease agreements quietly include:
• Personal guarantees that outlive the business
• Rent escalations buried in schedules or exhibits
• Maintenance and repair obligations shifted to the tenant
• Restrictions on assignment or subleasing
• Limited exit rights, even if the business struggles
These issues are easy to miss — and expensive to ignore.
