The Pre Lease Agreement serves as a crucial intermediate step in commercial and residential property leasing transactions in Qatar. It is typically used when parties have agreed on principal terms but require a binding framework while preparing for the formal lease execution. This document becomes particularly important in situations involving new developments, properties under construction, or when significant fit-out works are required. The agreement must comply with Qatar's real estate laws, particularly Law No. 4 of 2008, and includes provisions for deposits, conditions precedent, timeframes, and obligations of both parties. It provides security to both landlord and tenant by establishing legally binding commitments while maintaining flexibility for finalizing detailed terms in the subsequent lease agreement.
