Letter of Intent
(Retail Lease) (Short Form)

Summary

This template for a letter of intent (short form) is used in a commercial real estate leasing transaction to document the understanding between the parties regarding the proposed lease of real property. This template includes practical guidance and drafting notes. The letter of intent should include the key terms of the proposed transaction. The letter of intent (short form) does not go into as much detail as the letter of intent (long form), and may be suitable for proposed leases of property that are less complex or significant. This template may be tailored to suit each transaction. For a full listing of key content covering retail leasing, see Retail Leasing Resource Kit.
