Dealing with a commercial property rent review or lease renewal requires skills that develop over time and through experience.  To identify the relevant features of a commercial property lease and rent review clause that may affect rental value, and to be able to make qualitative adjustments to the available evidence, surveyors need technical skills in lease interpretation resulting from an understanding of relevant legislation, case law and guidance. In order to reach a negotiated settlement and to avoid conflict professionals need negotiation and client care skills.  Both technical and soft skills are covered in this course.  

This online course provides an introduction to the broad area of commercial property rent reviews and lease renewals, and explains the options and procedures of dispute resolution when negotiations break down. 

The course relates to business tenancies in England & Wales.
