What this usually involves

Renewal outcomes depend on whether the lease is protected and who serves notice first. Timing errors can lose renewal rights entirely.

  • Establishing whether the 1954 Act applies
  • Section 25 and section 26 notices
  • Negotiating rent and terms on renewal

Common questions

Can the landlord refuse to renew?
Only on statutory grounds such as redevelopment or persistent rent arrears, sometimes with compensation payable.
How early should we start?
Twelve months before expiry gives room to negotiate or relocate.
