Business owners can choose to purchase commercial property or lease appropriate premises for a set time.
Owners of a freehold property own the building and the land it stands on. There is no time limit to the ownership period.
Owners of a leasehold property only own the property for a set period and do not own the land on which the property stands. Ownership of a leasehold property reverts to the freeholder when the lease expires, unless there is an agreement to extend or purchase the lease (known as enfranchisement).
Although there are similarities between commercial conveyancing and buying and selling residential property, commercial property law can involve complex procedures.
If you are thinking of buying, selling or renting business premises, specialist advice is vital.

For business owners who choose to rent commercial space, negotiating an appropriate commercial lease that protects your interests is crucial.
Factors to consider in commercial leases include:
- The lease’s length.
- The type of premises.
- The premises’ condition at the beginning of the lease.
- Any repair obligations that must be considered.
- Whether the lease can be terminated by either party early.
- Whether there is a rent review clause (relevant for longer leases).
- Whether there are any service charges, and if so, who provides them.
A Heads of Terms documents sets out the main terms agreed between the relevant parties in a commercial property transaction, for example, buyer and seller or landlord and tenant.
Heads of Terms are prepared after initial negotiations have taken place and before the finer details have been decided. Although they are not usually legally binding, spending time agreeing on the Heads of Terms can make subsequent negotiations easier, saving time and expense.
