The Agreement to Lease is a crucial document in Belgian property transactions, serving as a binding preliminary agreement that bridges the gap between initial negotiations and the final lease execution. It is commonly used when parties have agreed on essential terms but need time to complete due diligence, arrange financing, or fulfill other conditions before entering into the final lease agreement. This document, while preliminary in nature, creates legally binding obligations under Belgian law and must comply with both federal civil code requirements and regional regulations depending on the property's location (Brussels-Capital, Flanders, or Wallonia). The agreement typically includes detailed property descriptions, proposed lease terms, conditions precedent, timelines, and any special requirements specific to the property or intended use. It provides security for both parties while maintaining flexibility for addressing necessary prerequisites to the final lease.
