Licence to Assign
Legal support with commercial lease assignments and landlord consent from Sanders Witherspoon solicitors in Billericay, Essex.
About Licence to Assign
Transferring a lease to a new tenant may require the landlord's consent and a formal licence to assign. The lease sets the starting point for the conditions and information required. An outgoing tenant should also understand whether any guarantee or other obligation will continue after the assignment.
Key Points
- Read the assignment provisions in the lease.
- Prepare the information required about the proposed tenant.
- Check any continuing guarantee and associated costs.
How We Can Help
We review the proposed transfer and consent documentation, explaining the effect on landlord, incoming tenant and outgoing tenant. We can assist with negotiations and the legal documents needed to complete the assignment on agreed terms.
