When the ‘ink is dry’ the terms are set, and the landlord and the tenant are legally bound to the lease terms. An excellent way of ensuring your lease terms support your organisation’s objectives into the future is to learn from the mistakes of others. This module highlights common lease negotiation mistakes that have harmed tenants, with guidance for avoiding such mistakes. Attendees will be better placed to negotiate tenant-friendly lease terms that help to future-proof organisations.

Market rent reviews can be a turning point in your lease, either securing long-term value or introducing unnecessary risk. For commercial tenants, the stakes are high, so it's critical to understand your rights, avoid common pitfalls, and approach negotiations with a clear strategy and confidence.
