Forcing the issue
Article Abstract:
The recommendations of the Woolf committee, as applied to Part II of the United Kingdom Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, have changed the methods used for Part II applications to renew business leases. Part 24 of the UK Civil Procedure Rules can be used to deal with Part II applications which can not be agreed by either the landlord or tenant. A Part 24 application may lead to faster negotiations and in cases when either side is not prepared to compromise the Part 24 application may cut time and costs. Part 24 is only relevant for cases which can be presented in written form.

What about my rent?
Article Abstract:
Landlords should make an attempt to reduce their losses when a tenant leaves their property in a state of disrepair by making a list of necessary repairs, ensuring they are carried out and by placing the property onto the market as soon as possible. Landlords should also obtain a true valuation of their property. Some landlords try to claim loss of rent against their former tenants for the period of time when the property is being repaired. A case heard in the UK courts in 1994 resulted in the landlord failing to win a claim of loss of rent because of the poor market for commercial property.

Terms of surrender
Article Abstract:
Landlords may find surrender back provisions in commercial leases are not worthwhile. It can lead to difficulties if the tenant or landlord does not fully cooperate once the surrender back has been accepted. Leases with surrender back provisions require tenants to surrender back their leases if they wish to assign them. It is not known how the surrender back clause will work with provisions in the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, section 38.
