We are just over two years into a five year lease which (in the words of the lease agreement) ‘creates a new tenancy for the purposes of the Landlord and Tenant (Covenants) Act 1995’.
However we have just discovered that our landlord has put in a planning application to turn the offices into residential which obviously effects our position. I haven’t spoken to them yet (and am a bit miffed he decided against speaking to us yet either really).
I cannot find anything in the agreement that covers the eventuality of the landlord cancelling an agreement – the only clause I can find is a tenant’s ‘Break clause’ which only covers our rights to cancel midway through the agreement, not his.
So – if he is to turf us out a good two years before our tenancy ends, what would our likely rights be?
Cheers
