Lease Expires and Renewals and Lease Break Strategy
The end of the lease of a commercial premises offers an opportunity to restructure the terms of the lease. Despite statutory frameworks governing many renewals, an increasing number of leases remain unprotected, and some cases are referred to the court.
Brecker Grossmith’s commercial property experts specialise in ensuring our clients make the most of the lease renewal process, so they are able to emerge from in it a strong position. Our lease advisory surveyors are professionally qualified and highly experienced in the field of lease expiry and renewal and can manage every aspect of this technical process. We provide strategic advice and support throughout the whole negotiation and legal process.
Rent Reviews – Expert Witness
The purpose of a rent review is to modify the rent, so it conforms to fluctuations in the value of money and the value of the property. This can, unsurprisingly, lead to disputes between landlords and tenants. Rent review disputes are typically settled through negotiation between the respective surveyors.
With both technical expertise and local market knowledge, Brecker Grossmith’s team of Professional service experts, offer comprehensive and solid advice and negotiation support on rental value and strategy, preparation or arbitration / independent expert reports and Expert Witness representation.
Arbitration and Independent Expert Referrals
When a settlement cannot be negotiated, Brecker Grossmith is highly experienced in the referral of rent review disputes to either arbitration or independent experts.
Our team of referral experts has detailed knowledge of the statutory framework provided by the Arbitration Act 1966 and of the procedural instructions required by Independent Experts.
