Barrhead Industrial Lease Guide
Industrial leases in Barrhead are typically structured as net leases where the tenant pays base rent plus a pro-rata share of operating costs (property tax, insurance, maintenance). Lease terms commonly range from 3–10 years, with longer terms often securing below-market rent and tenant improvement allowances.
Key Lease Terms to Negotiate
For tenants: focus on free rent periods, tenant improvement (TI) allowances, renewal options at fixed or CPI-linked rates, assignment rights, and expansion rights. For landlords: ensure strong covenant, personal guarantees on smaller tenants, and operating cost caps to protect NOI.
Industrial Zoning in Alberta
Alberta municipalities zone industrial land as Light Industrial (I-1), General Industrial (I-2), and Heavy Industrial (I-3). Most warehouse, flex and logistics users require I-1 or I-2. Confirm zoning before executing LOIs to avoid costly delays.
