What you need to know before and after you sign

Are you a small business owner considering, negotiating or already operating under a retail or commercial lease?

This practical session will focus on what matters most, helping you understand key terms, identify common risks and ask the right questions early. It will provide you with the knowledge you need before you sign, which can save you time, money and stress down the track.

You’ll hear directly from Small Business Commissioner Dan van Holst Pellekaan and a panel of industry experts, who will share insights from real leasing scenarios, including common issues that arise and how they can be avoided. This session is designed to build your confidence and clarity, so you can make informed decisions and avoid costly surprises.

Attendees of this session will:

  • Learn what to look for in a commercial lease before it’s signed.
  • Learn the key questions to ask to avoid common risks and misunderstandings.
  • Gain confidence to pause, review and make informed leasing decisions.
