2 A. Introduction 1. Characteristics of a Ground Lease Most commercial leases which real estate lawyers encounter involve the lease of space in a building for a period of years. A ground lease, however, is a much different form of lease whereby the tenant leases the land rather than a building.
In Roman law, ground rent (solarium) was an annual rent payable by the lessee of a superficies (a piece of land), or perpetual lease of building land. In early Norman England, tenants could lease their title to land so that the land-owning lords did not have any power over the sub-tenant to collect taxes.
