Attornment Clause Samples
An attornment clause establishes the agreement of a tenant to recognize a new owner of the property, such as a purchaser or lender, as their landlord in the event of a transfer of ownership. In practice, this means that if the property is sold or foreclosed upon, the tenant agrees to continue honoring the lease terms with the new landlord without interruption. This clause ensures continuity of tenancy and protects the interests of both the new property owner and the tenant by clarifying their ongoing relationship after a change in ownership.
