Commercial property legal services

Property leases and purchases

Wellers Consultancy for the hospitality sector have a team of highly qualified solicitors to assist you with the legal process to find and acquire the right premises for your business.

Getting the details right

Before you sign a commercial lease agreement, we explain all the terms and conditions involved, including the rent, deposit, repair obligations, planning regulations and service charges for utilities. We consider what options you have at the end of the lease term and to what extent it can be renegotiated or if surrendered how the condition of the property and any potential repairs will be assessed.

Whether you are seeking a new lease, lease renewal, sub-let or an assignment, we will guide you through the process and execute your instructions.

Negotiating Incentives

Being closely involved with the hospitality sector and the landlords that service the industry we know when incentives might be available. In tandem with our partners, we will negotiate any incentives that the landlord may be able to offer including rent free periods or assistance with the fitting out of the premises. 

Make use of our broad-based knowledge

Your commercial lease or your purchase or sale of a commercial property may be part of the acquisition or sale of a business as a going concern, including the transfer of assets, goodwill, stocks, and employees. If so, we will seamlessly combine our property knowledge with our company and commercial law expertise, and advise you on the whole process to make sure that nothing is missed.

We can also guide you through the complexities of raising and securing bank finance for your property, or indeed for your business generally.
