At Mills & Reeve, our residential property team offers comprehensive legal services for residential landlords. Our service is personal to you, and we will work closely with you to understand your objectives and ensure that you achieve them.
We act for both landlords and tenants on right to manage claims under the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002 and the right of first refusal under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987. This ensures that we understand what the other side is hoping to achieve and the tactics they may employ. We can provide pre-emptive and pragmatic advice as a result. We have experience of dealing with high value, complex properties and provide commercial and pragmatic advice at every stage.
