Frequently Asked Questions

Heads of terms (known as HOTs) are intended to be a summary of important points agreed between contracting parties before they move to the stage of a full, comprehensive contract. Heads of Terms are usually prepared by Estate Agents or Surveyors. Heads of terms are not essential or required for commercial transactions. The main advantage of using heads of terms is for complex, high value/importance commercial transactions such as Leases. Focusing the parties minds on key issues at the “Heads of Terms” stage can result in the deal going through faster, with less friction, decreased risks of attempted last minute renegotiation and possibly the saving of some legal fees.
Security of tenure gives business tenants the right to stay in their property after the lease ends and request a renewal on similar terms. Security of tenure primarily benefits the tenants as it allows them to establish a long-term base of operations and focus on business growth without the uncertainty of potential eviction at the end of their lease term.
An overage clause (sometimes called a clawback provision) is a provision usually contained in a property sale contract that requires the buyer to make an additional payment to the seller if the property's value increases as a result of specific events, such as the buyer obtaining planning permission.
