Permits, licensing, and zoning specifics worth flagging
| Factor | Where new owners get tripped up | Questions to ask before you sign |
|---|---|---|
| Build-out budget | Underestimating mechanical, electrical, and plumbing — the "hidden" 30-50% of build-out cost. | Get 3 quotes from licensed contractors and pad budget by +20% for surprises. Confirm landlord TI allowance in writing. |
| Parking & visibility | Storefront looks great from the sidewalk but is invisible from the road. | Drive past at 30 mph from both directions. Count street parking + nearest paid lot capacity at peak hours. |
| Insurance + compliance | General liability quoted at a starter rate, then jumping 2-3x once you add property + workers' comp + business interruption. | Get binding quotes from 2 insurers before signing the lease. Most landlords require minimum coverage levels — read those terms first. |
