Landlord & Tenant
Clifford Dann have been advising owners and occupiers - landlords and tenants - of rented property for many years and have an established expertise in this field. We offer clear advice based on our experience of values in the Sussex area and our knowledge of the complexity of the Landlord and Tenant Legislation.
Lease Renewal
Lease renewal provides the opportunity to review the impracticality of older leases and introduce commercial reality. The Landlord & Tenant Acts provide a strict timetable to be followed by both sides and with proper professional advice a significant technical advantage can be gained. In this respect we recommend to both landlords and tenants that they take advice before the lease expires.
Rent Review
Rent Reviews are an area for potential conflict; all landlords want rents to increase whereas tenants want them to decrease. We act for either party in such disputes to ensure that no tenant pays too much whilst no landlord receives too little.
Valuation
Valuation is at the heart of our business, we are RICS Registered Valuers - whether you are buying or selling, if you are a landlord or a tenant. At the end of the day, the level of rent or price paid is the crucial figure. Our partners and managers have a wide knowledge of residential and commercial values across the County. This has been built up over many years and comes from not only an active involvement in the residential and commercial agency markets within the County, but also from professional advice given to owners, Asset Managers, Charities and tenants alike. Our Partners and Managers have acted as Expert Witnesses in litigation matters where our valuation expertise is put fully to the test.
