If an environmentally “risky” tenant, such as a dry cleaning business, gas station, or auto service center—which all use chemicals that could contaminate your property—will be lucrative enough to make taking the risk of potential damage worth it, it’s crucial that you protect yourself from liability and shift responsibility for any mistakes to the tenant. You don’t have to let a great lease deal go out of fear that you’ll be left with an environmental nightmare if the tenant fails to clean up a spill or leaves other damage behind.
