What is the 'make good' clause? 'Make good' refers to the clause/s in a lease that set out how a tenant should leave a property at the end of the lease term. Basically, when the day comes to hand back the keys to the landlord, the property should be in the condition that is stipulated in the lease.

For example, if Company X stops paying rent June 1 and Company X leaves June 1, the good guy is completely off the hook. If Company X stops paying rent June 1 and Company X leaves July 1, the good guy owes the landlord rent for the month of June.

Examples of 'make good' provisions include: If a tenant rents the premises as a shell, their 'make good' obligation could involve stripping all fixtures and fittings, removing staircases, and returning the premises to the landlord as a shell (sometimes also referred to as decommissioning obligations)

Here is an example of a rent amount clause in a lease: "The Tenant agrees to pay $12,000 as rent, to be paid as follows: $1,000 per month, due on the 1st day of each month. Payment of the first month's rent and any security deposit is due upon the signing of this Lease by the Tenant.

For example, the original tenant might have put holes in the wall to make a new passageway or undertaken other major work on the property. At the end of the lease, the new tenant must fix those issues and return the property to the condition that it was in at the start of the lease.

A Good Guy Clause, (?GGC?) is a lease provision typically found in commercial leases that allows a landlord to release a tenant from liability in the event the tenant does not complete the lease period.
