A Lease in Retail means a contract by which one party conveys land, property, services, etc. to another for a specified time, usually in return for a periodic payment. A legal document outlining the terms under which one party agrees to rent property from another party. A lease guarantees the lessee (the renter) use of an asset and guarantees the lessor (the property owner) regular payments from the lessee for a specified number of months or years. Both the lessee and the lessor must uphold the terms of the contract for the lease to remain valid.
