INTRODUCTION TO RENT REVIEWS

About This Course

Rent reviews are essential for maintaining the long-term financial health of a commercial property. As economic conditions shift and tenants commit to longer lease terms, landlords must have mechanisms in place to ensure rental rates remain aligned with the market. Mid-term rent reviews—especially in 10 to 15-year leases—help protect property value, reduce risk, and accommodate market movements without renegotiating an entire lease.

You'll explore real-world scenarios where mid-term reviews are necessary, such as tenants with high structural investments or long-term operational commitments. This course guides you through the rent review process, from identifying lease provisions to understanding the roles of key stakeholders like tenant representatives, solicitors, finance managers, and independent retail assessors.

  • Understand the purpose and timing of mid-term rent reviews.
  • Recognise the key parties involved in the rent review process.
