Should Downtown Brampton owners incorporate before signing a lease?
The timing should be reviewed because the tenant name, personal guarantees, authority, and risk can matter.
Can a trade name be used in contracts?
It may be possible, but the legal entity, business name registration, invoices, and signing block should be consistent.

Yes, especially when more than one owner, investor, or family member is involved.
