Techniques in pricing of rental rates when leasing refrigerated warehouse space.



What does refrigerated warehouse space lease for?
What do refrigerated buildings rent for?
What should I lease this refrigerated warehouse space for? Sometimes this is a very difficult question to answer!

When leasing a refrigerated warehouse building or refrigerated food processing plant it is confusing what a fair lease rate price would be to pay in rent for a refrigerated building or refrigerated warehouse space. What are the terms and conditions that matter most when your company decides to rent refrigerated warehouse space? Leasing of refrigerated warehouse space can be both confusing and frustrating; any mistake might be a very costly mistake.

Understanding what the tenant should pay for and what the building owner should pay for after moving into the building should always is part of any of lease negotiations of refrigerated warehouse space. Questions about who will pay for the electric bill, payment of the property taxes and maintenance to the refrigerated building structure all need to be answered. Then who will operate the refrigeration mechanical system? What happens when there are major repairs needed to that Freon or Ammonia refrigeration system, who will fix the refrigeration system, and then who will pay for those repairs? Is it the refrigerated landlord or is it the refrigerated tenant's responsibility for all environmental accountability and reporting for the refrigeration system’s gas? What if your company's refrigerated food product is damaged by a loss of temperature in the refrigerated warehouse space that you have leased? Who will pay for the loss? Is it the tenant’s responsibility or the building owner’s responsibility or is it an issue for the insurance company, but whose insurance company?
