Readers of our book, Negotiating Commercial Leases & Renewals FOR DUMMIES, will learn (in part) that the leasing process can take differing amounts of time, depending on whether you're opening your first or fifth restaurant location. You can discover a lot during your first few lease deals that you can carry forward - potentially saving you both time and money with further leasing projects. The key is to give yourself ample time so you can recover from setbacks and delays without it costing you more capital or rent.
