This book provides a concise yet comprehensive coverage of the law of landlord and tenant in England and Wales. It deals with the common law concepts as developed over the years and, most importantly, all important legislation relating to residential, commercial and agricultural tenancies. Many chapters concentrate on protected Rent Act tenancies, assured and assured shorthold tenancies, enfranchisement of houses and flats, extension of leases, right of first refusal and commonhold. While public sector residential tenancies and agricultural tenancies are briefly covered, business tenancies are covered in greater detail. The book will be of interest to university students, law professionals, chartered surveyors, estate managers and the lay public. It can be used as a guide prior to a more in-depth study of the subject. For students, it should provide adequately for their needs depending on the extent in which they need to study the subject.
