[RPPTL LandTen] Security Deposits on Condo Rentals

[Charles Levin]

Good morning!  I am wondering what you all think about the enforceability by
the tenant of the following clause found in a lease.  (I represent the
landlord.)



35. TENANT'S OPTION TO PURCHASE. Landlord agrees to sell Tenant the Premises
for the

total amount of $2,000,000. The option must be exercised within the initial
five-year term of

the Lease. This option is in no way restrictive or to be considered as a
right of first refusal,

contract or binding agreement keeping the Landlord from selling said
property to anyone else at

any time during the lease term, for any amount.



Thank you,



Charles J. Levin
