Requires landlords to mitigate damages when commercial tenants vacate premises in violation of the terms of the lease

This bill requires commercial landlords to take reasonable steps to re-rent vacant properties when tenants leave early or break their lease agreements. Under the new rules, landlords must act in good faith to find a new tenant at either the current agreed-upon rate or the current fair market price, whichever is lower. If a new lease is signed, it immediately ends the old tenant's lease and stops the landlord from charging them for the remaining time. The bill also states that any lease clause trying to remove this duty is invalid, and it places the responsibility on the landlord to prove they tried to mitigate losses if they want to collect unpaid rent.
