Charity Leases and Other Property Documents
Almost every business is involved in property in some way, either as a tenant or landlord. Charities are also able to buy or lease land for their own use or even as an investment provided charity trustees ensure the property suits the charity's needs, the price is fair and at market value and they understand the associated legal obligations such as planning restrictions and the transaction is in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2022.
These Charity Leases and Other Property Documents have been professionally drafted and are for use by both charities and landlords. They include guidance for charity trustees on property transactions, guidance for landlords on the differences and implications of granting a lease, licence or tenancy at will and whether to give the charity a right to renew at the end of a lease term. This is known as security of tenure.
There is a selection of easy to use leases for use by a landlord making an office available for use by a charity, and for a charity to sublet a surplus part of its leased office premises to another person or organisation. Where necessary, each document includes wording required to comply with the Charities Acts.
Other forms of leases and licences specifically geared to the letting of offices, industrial units, agricultural land and shops and restaurants are also available.
The documents are constructed in Word format and can be customised to meet your requirements. Please click on the links below to view details.
