Explanation

An estoppel certificate (tenant estoppel) is a signed statement from a tenant confirming lease terms at a specific date. When a commercial property is sold or refinanced in Nevada, the buyer or lender will request estoppel certificates from all tenants to verify rent, lease terms, security deposits, and whether any defaults exist. By signing, the tenant is 'estopped' (legally prevented) from later claiming different lease terms.
