Again, how you negotiate a lease (or anything else in business) depends on your unique, individual situation. If it is in a separate building, what are other people doing in similar situations in your area. If it is in a strip mall, what are the other tenants paying? What did they get for allowance, holdover, etc.?

If your landlord has other people wanting the space, he is not going to want to negotiate. If you are the only prospect on a bay that has been empty for 6 months, negotiate every aspect of the lease. There is no magic formula to know what to ask for. Everything is negotiable under the right circumstances.

Hope this helps.
