RE12 Alice HickGrant of a lease and leasehold management
Exceptions, reservations and rights in a lease of part
Where the property is PART of a building, care must be taken to properly identify and describe
the RIGHTS which are to be granted to the tenant to enable proper use and enjoyment of the property and
the EXCEPTIONS made and the RIGHTS RESERVED to the landlord to retain control over the remainder of
the building
Landlords take responsibility for the repairs BUT
SERVICE CHARGE – charge them back to the tenant so they do not incur costs
Exceptions and Reservations are rights over leasehold property which benefit the landlord.
They may, for instance:
o Enable the landlord to develop neighbouring property without interference.
o Assist the landlord in ensuring the tenant complies with the terms of the lease.
EXCEPTION: something that ALREADY EXISTS and would be part of the lease, but is excluded from the
grant (for example, mineral rights). I.e. the landlord retains this right.
RESERVATION: something that is NOT IN EXISTENCE at the date of the grant but which arises out of the
demise e.g. a right of entry for the landlord.

purposes at any reasonable time and after reasonable notice.
This provides the landlord with an ability to deal with neighbouring land he owns.
o Tenant may wish to retain some control/supervision of the exercise of these rights (e.g. by
requiring that any works must be completed within a reasonable time scale)
o Tenant may wish to narrow the exclusion of liability and require that those exercising the
rights of entry act with due care
o In particular may wish to narrow the exclusion of liability so that there is liability for
damage to the tenant’s belongings, whether or not negligence is involved
Rights for the tenant

the Landlord in its discretion considers adequate;
