Why Your Lease Should Come With an Exit Strategy

No one likes to think about leaving on day one. But trust me, the best tenants do.
I’ve seen businesses forced into bankruptcy because they couldn’t get out of a bad
lease. Others lost hundreds of thousands trying to sublease space with zero demand.
Your exit strategy is just as important as your entry strategy.
Build These Exit Options In:
Defined sublease language
Buyout clauses with capped costs
Options to downsize or consolidate
Clear default and cure provisions
At CIG, we build long-term relationships—but we also build responsible off-ramps. It’s
about protecting your downside so you can focus on upside.
