Important Information

Please note that where Landlord Consent is required under the terms of your lease this is in addition to other consents such as licensing and planning consent which may also be needed, albeit that these other consents may also be required from Newark and Sherwood District Council as the local authority. Newark and Sherwood District Council has various statutory functions, for example The Council’s role as the planning authority is entirely distinct from that acting in its capacity as a land owner. 

It is your responsibility as the tenant to ensure you have identified and obtained all the necessary consents required for your occupation and use. Please note that there may be additional costs for such consents.

When should I get professional advice?

We recommend that you seek independent legal advice on the following occasions:
• When first considering taking on a lease
• When nearing the end of your lease
• If you want to assign your lease
• For any other matters relevant to the lease e.g. alterations, change of use etc.
• For general advice on your legal position

Details of local lawyers can be obtained from the Law Society, Chartered Institute of Legal Executives (CILEX) or Council for Licensed Conveyancers.

We also recommend that you appoint a chartered surveyor to act for you during rent reviews, lease renewal and when discussing your repairing and maintenance liabilities.
