Re: Vacation of property
As a general rule, laws governing commercial leasing of property impose fewer contraints on landlords and, consequently, ensure and protect fewer rights for the lessees of such property, as opposed to laws governing residential leases, which do just the opposite.
Therefore the answer to your question is, probably, yes.
