A rent review under a vanishing tenancy
An Agricultural Holdings Act 1986 tenancy is a tightly prescribed agreement. Few remain. Acting for the tenant of one such holding, our Associate Director James negotiated a reduction in rent that was both defensible against precedent and protective of a family farming business.
The case is described in fuller terms, and with names withheld at the client’s request, in the linked case study.
Estates are complex ecosystems that provide extensive benefits to local communities, including biodiversity, social value and economic opportunities, all of which require careful balancing.
And, in his own shorthand, “seeing the wood from the trees.”
– Matthew, Director
