Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida
Why commercial landlords do not have to disclose major problems with the building, such as inferior electrical service to tenant and if the tenant signs a contract that states �as is�, then re-wiring all the way to improving the electrical meter room is now the responsibility of the new tenant, who must now improve the landlords premises.
2 Answers from Attorneys
Commercial tenants are supposed to be more sophisticated and are supposed to know in advance of signing a lease what their electrical requirements are going to be. If the landlord lied to you, then you may have a claim. However, if you knew what electrical service was in the building prior to signing your lease, then one would expect that you would have properly negotiated the electrical issue prior to signing your lease.
If a fraud was committed, you have a remedy.
