Enhance Your Credit: Lease Guaranties, Security Deposits and Other Performance Enhancements (Mark Levenson)
In this interactive workshop, we will discuss the various ways a landlord can help to ensure performance under a lease. Through discussion of the use of guaranties, security deposits (both cash and letters of credit), and bonds and self-help rights, we will explore how to enhance the credit supporting a lease as well as pointers on drafting these provisions. We will present examples of these credit enhancements; how they work and can help in a lease; and the potential pitfalls associated with each alternative.
