1. Identify the key components of a lease renewal that most impact practice profitability.

Lease Renewal Strategies Course Description: Your dental office lease is one of the most powerful financial tools in your practice - but also one of the most overlooked. This program is designed to show dentists exactly how to approach an upcoming lease renewal strategically to reduce costs, eliminate risk, and preserve practice value. Drawing from real-world examples and decades of dental lease negotiations across North America, this session exposes the most common traps buried in renewal terms - and how to turn them into opportunities for savings. Whether your lease is renewing in six months or six years, you’ll learn actionable steps to strengthen your position with your landlord, protect your practice during a sale, and ensure your lease supports - not limits - your long-term goals.
