Repair, Service Charge Costs & Dilapidations - A Landlord’s Charter?

Introduction

The meaning of the word ‘repair’ in a lease can have huge implications for landlord and tenant in terms of both obligations and recovery of costs - not least when the lease ends and the tenant must return the property to the landlord in good repair - or pay damages to the landlord.

So, what does ‘repair’ really mean, what are its practical implications and how best to advise tenants and landlords looking to resolve such issues expeditiously and cost effectively?

This webinar looks at practical steps for both parties.

What You Will Learn

This webinar will cover the following:

• Repair: why & when the age and length of the lease, the age of the property and the changing needs of the property market matter
• Why ‘diminution’ is so important at the end of the lease: the impact of supersession
• The impact of ‘good condition’ on lease obligations: Pullman v Welsh Ministers
• When inherent defects are part or ‘repair’ and when they are not: Great Arthur House

This pre-recorded webinar will be streamed at 12:30pm on Tuesday 8th November 2022 and will remain available to view by delegates who have registered by then for 90 days.
