The Connecticut commercial lease agreement is between a landlord and an individual or entity seeking to rent retail, office, or industrial space. All contracts that are written must follow Statute 42a-2a and once signed, advised to be in front of a notary public, the agreement becomes legal and enforceable by both parties.
It is highly recommended that the landlord elect to have the tenant fill in a rental application to verify the business; operation, holdings, income, and any other information including rental history. It is also a good idea to search the State Website to make sure the entity is active.
