Dealing with Breaches of the Lease
During the term of a Lease it may be necessary for the landlord to raise with the tenant issues such as late payment of rent or complaints about the tenant’s behaviour. These Breaches of the Lease templates help landlords effectively address breaches while protecting their rights and interests in the property.
They offer a wide range of professionally drafted documents ranging including where a landlord sets out regulations which the tenant is required to follow, and letters covering rent arrears and other breaches of a lease. There is a variety of letters covering the management of breaches ranging in severity from gentle reminders to final warnings.
Commercial landlords and letting agents need to be aware of The Debt Respite Scheme (Breathing Space Moratorium and Mental Health Crisis Moratorium) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020. These regulations may affect a landlord if the tenant (an individual) is in problem debt. These regulations prohibit you from chasing your tenant (and anyone who is jointly liable) for rent arrears, charging late interest and fees and taking any enforcement action for rent arrears caught by the moratorium whilst your tenant is in a 'breathing space'. These regulations mainly affect residential tenancies but commercial tenancies may be caught where the tenant is an individual, they are not registered for VAT and the debts do not relate solely to the business.
The documents are constructed in Word format, and can be customised to meet your requirements. Please click on the links below to access the documents.
