Richard Snape, our Head of Legal Training, tackles the 'hard truths' about the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, and draws on findings from one of our recent webinar surveys on the same topic.


This article explores key issues including contracting out of the Act, the risks of misjudging business occupation, and proposed reforms such as the ban on upwards-only rent reviews. It also examines how hybrid working, home business tenancies under the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015, and evolving lease structures are testing the Act’s boundaries.
