Commercial property is suddenly at the top of the government’s agenda. This session will look at the practical impact of:
- The ban on upwards only rent review: what do we know, how will it work?
- The latest news as to reforming the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954: what will it mean for practitioners?
- Some of the 54 Act tricky issues – tenancies at will, holding over, licences, oral periodic tenancies
- The Law Commission’s proposals as to AGAs, GAGAs and pre-emption rights: why are they so important in practice?
- Why residential property law may prove more important in commercial leases than practitioners might have hoped
