Part 1: UCC Basics for LLC Tenants
Headline: 🛡️ Understanding the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC)
Key Points:
- The UCC is a nationwide framework that governs commercial transactions.
- LLC tenants can use UCC filings to protect their business property and interests.
- Even without a signed lease, UCC filings can establish a public record of your claim.
Landlords may try to convince tenants that “no contract” means “no defense.” That’s not true. The UCC allows LLC tenants to file financing statements to protect their assets—even without a debtor’s signature. This filing creates notice to the public, strengthens your legal position, and prevents landlords from erasing your rights.
