Explanation
A tenant estoppel certificate is signed by a commercial tenant confirming the current status of their lease — base rent, lease term, any modifications, the absence of landlord defaults, and any rights (purchase options, renewal rights) they claim. Lenders and buyers require estoppel certificates before closing commercial transactions to verify that the lease terms in the abstract match the tenant's understanding.
