If a tenant moves out and leaves behind fixtures, furniture, and equipment (FF&E), you may decide to leave them in the space because they make it more attractive to prospective tenants. But that can lead to trouble once a new tenant moves in. The new tenant may think that it owns the FF&E and might try to remove or sell them. And your lease might not stop the tenant from doing this.
To plug this lease loophole, make sure your lease, like our Model Lease Clause: Get Control Over Abandoned Fixtures, Furniture, and Equipment, spells out who controls those items.
