Los Angeles spans over 200 million square feet of commercial space across distinct submarkets including Century City, Westside, DTLA, El Segundo, and the San Fernando Valley. The market is driven by entertainment, technology, and international trade, with one of the busiest industrial corridors in the country adjacent to the Port of Long Beach. California tenant protections add a layer of complexity not found in most US markets.

Westside office leases favor Modified Gross or FSG. Industrial leases along the I-710 corridor are predominantly NNN. Retail on the high-street corridors (Rodeo Drive, Melrose) command NNN with percentage rent. California law requires specific disclosures and provides stronger tenant audit rights than most states, making CAM cap and operating expense provisions especially important to abstract carefully.
