Read the schedule
Look for the initial payment, percentage or dollar increase, frequency, and total duration. Ask for the expected payments over the complete term, not just the first year.
Compare utility exposure
A rising lease payment and changing utility rates make future comparisons uncertain. Any savings estimate should show its assumptions and limitations.
Confirm contract controls
The signed lease controls the escalator, transfer conditions and any buyout rights. Review it carefully and seek qualified advice if a term is unclear.
