Leasing guide
What to look for in a Michigan hangar lease
When comparing a hangar for lease at Oakland County Airport, check usable floor space and clear door dimensions against your aircraft, then review the full operating costs and written terms.
Compare the total cost, not just rent
Ask for a written breakdown of base rent, deposits, utilities, heating, taxes and any shared service charges. Check which costs are fixed and which vary with usage or the season.
Understand the term and renewal
Review the start date, minimum term, renewal options, rent adjustments and notice deadlines. Make sure early termination provisions fit your operating plans.
Review insurance and indemnity
Have your insurance adviser review coverage limits, additional-insured requirements and indemnity language. Confirm how your aircraft, equipment and tenant activities are covered; do not assume the property policy covers them.
Check fueling rules
Confirm airport and lease restrictions on fueling, fuel storage and permitted providers. Ask about any fuel commitments or fees rather than assuming self-fueling is permitted.
Plan for snow removal and heat
For a Michigan hangar rental, ask who clears the apron and door tracks, when snow removal occurs and how ice is handled. Confirm heat settings, utility billing and responsibility for heating outages.
Confirm access hours
Review tenant, crew and vehicle access, gate credentials and procedures outside staffed hours. Confirm how aircraft movements are arranged and whether assistance requires advance notice.
Get subleasing terms in writing
Check whether sharing space, subleasing or assigning the lease requires consent. Confirm permitted uses and insurance requirements before bringing in another aircraft or business.
A hangar with office space at KPTK
Integrated office space keeps flight planning, records and crew coordination close to the aircraft. Flight departments can prepare for trips and coordinate maintenance without working from a separate location.
Compare the office layout with your needs for private calls, meetings, secure records and crew workstations. Confirm utilities, connectivity, access and permitted uses as part of the lease discussion.
