Lease Agreement & Vendor Responsibilities
At Alamo Craft Company, we strive to provide our vendors with a seamless and supportive experience. Here's what you can expect when leasing a booth space with us:
- Lease Agreement: Choose from six or twelve-month lease periods, outlining both the store and vendor responsibilities. Our mutual agreement forms the foundation for our success.
- Lease Renewal: After your initial term, you can renew your lease for continued booth rental.
- Move-in Process: New vendor contracts become effective upon payment of the first month's rent, prorated rents (if applicable), a one-time admin fee of $50.00, and any other applicable fees.
- Rent Payments: Rent is due on the 1st of each month, with a 3-day grace period. Late payments after the 4th will incur a $30.00 late fee.
- Notice of Departure: If you choose to leave after your lease term, provide written notice by the last day of the preceding month. Rent is due on the month you move out, even before the previous day.
- Early Lease Termination: Should you need to break your lease early, you can do so by “buying out” your contract, equivalent to 50% of the remainder of the lease term or two months' rent, whichever is greater.
