Common Areas Maintenance Clause Samples

The Common Areas Maintenance clause defines the responsibilities for maintaining and repairing shared spaces within a property, such as lobbies, hallways, parking lots, and landscaping. Typically, this clause outlines which party—often the landlord—will handle upkeep, cleaning, and necessary repairs, and may specify how costs are allocated among tenants, for example through a proportionate share of expenses. Its core function is to ensure that common areas remain safe, clean, and functional for all occupants, while clearly assigning maintenance duties and cost-sharing to prevent disputes.

In addition, such costs shall include administrative costs equal to ten percent (10%) of the total cost paid or incurred by Landlord under this paragraph. (b) Tenant shall pay as additional rent to Landlord, Tenant’s prorata share of such Common Area expenses in the following manner: (1) From and after the date the minimum rental provided for herein has commenced, but subject to adjustment as hereinafter in this subparagraph (1) provided, Tenant shall pay Landlord in advance on the first day of each calendar month during the term of this Lease an estimated and adjustable amount covering Tenant’s proportionate share of common area services and expenses, which amount may be adjusted by Landlord by notice to Tenant at the end of any calendar month on the basis of Landlord’s experience and reasonably anticipated costs.
