What is a Commercial Lease Extension?

Put simply, a commercial lease extension is the process of extending an existing lease agreement. This can either involve changing a current lease or entering into a new agreement altogether.

Commercial lease extensions are often governed by statutory rules, most commonly under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, alongside the specific terms of the existing lease. These rules are designed to protect tenants’ security of tenure while ensuring landlords retain appropriate control over their property.

In addition to statutory requirements, the terms of the existing lease, including rent, break clauses, and repairing obligations, will influence the extension process.

When should I start a commercial lease extension?

There is no one answer for when you should start considering a commercial lease extension. Regardless, it’s advisable to seek legal advice well before your lease expires.

Taking early action gives you more negotiating power and helps avoid disruption to your business operations.

Can landlords oppose a lease extension?

In certain scenarios, landlords may oppose a lease extension. These scenarios may include tenant insolvency, property use concerns and intended redevelopment, although there could be a wide range of different causes for this.

At Talbots Law, our expert commercial lease solicitors advise both landlords and tenants on the strength of their position and the best course of action.
