Legal Definitions - most-favored-tenant clause

A most-favored-tenant clause is a provision in a commercial lease that guarantees the tenant will receive the same benefits as any other tenant in the same building or complex.

For example, if a landlord offers a rent reduction or free parking to another tenant, the most-favored-tenant clause ensures that the tenant with this clause in their lease will also receive the same benefit.

This clause is important for tenants because it ensures that they are not being treated unfairly compared to other tenants in the same building or complex.
