Typically it runs around $500 to $750. However, it depends upon some factors which could cause it to go over that .

It will save time and money if the parties do the leg work, i.e. contact the landlord and get the estoppel information and approval for the assignment of lease.

I have done barber shops, nail salons, etc. If I can be of help, contact me at 954-752-1732.
