Commercial Property

Commercial property matters can have a significant impact on the success and stability of a business. Whether you are a landlord protecting your investment or a tenant safeguarding your operations, we provide practical legal advice tailored to your commercial objectives.

  • The acquisition and disposal of commercial property involves buying, selling, or transferring ownership of land, offices, retail premises, warehouses, and other business assets. These transactions often require careful legal planning to protect your investment and avoid unnecessary risks.

    ​

    At Green & Olive Solicitors, we provide practical legal advice throughout every stage of the transaction. From negotiating contracts to completing the purchase or sale, we work to ensure your commercial interests are fully protected.

  • A lease extension allows a tenant to increase the length of an existing lease, providing greater security and preserving the value of the property. Negotiating favourable terms is often essential for both landlords and tenants.

    ​

    We advise clients on every aspect of the lease extension process, helping secure practical agreements that support their long-term commercial objectives while protecting their legal position.

  • An assignment transfers the rights and obligations of a commercial lease from one tenant to another. Whether you are assigning or taking over a lease, understanding your legal responsibilities is essential.

    ​

    We help landlords and tenants navigate the assignment process with confidence. Our team prepares and reviews the necessary documentation, ensuring the transaction is completed efficiently and correctly.

  • New build commercial developments involve a range of legal considerations, from land acquisition through to construction and completion. Careful legal advice helps ensure projects remain on track and avoid unnecessary delays.

    ​

    Our solicitors work closely with developers, investors, and businesses throughout the development process. We provide practical guidance tailored to your project, helping ensure everything progresses smoothly.

    We provide commercially focused advice throughout every stage of the development process. Our team works alongside developers and investors to minimise risk and help projects achieve their full potential.

  • An option agreement gives a party the right to purchase land or property at a later date under agreed terms. These agreements are commonly used by developers and investors when planning future projects.

    ​

    We draft and negotiate option agreements that provide flexibility while protecting your commercial interests. Our advice is tailored to ensure your long-term objectives remain at the forefront.

  • Commercial property can be owned outright as a freehold or occupied under a leasehold arrangement, with each offering different rights and responsibilities. Understanding the legal implications is essential before entering into any transaction.

    ​

    We advise businesses, investors, and property owners on acquisitions, disposals, and ongoing property management. Our team ensures every transaction is handled efficiently while protecting your investment.

  • An overage agreement allows a seller to receive additional payment if land or property increases in value after it has been sold, often following future development or planning permission. These agreements require careful drafting to avoid future disputes.

    ​

    We prepare and negotiate overage agreements that clearly protect your interests and provide certainty for all parties involved. Our focus is on securing practical solutions that stand the test of time.

  • A commercial lease transfer enables an existing lease to be transferred from one business to another, subject to the landlord's approval where required. Ensuring the transfer is completed correctly is essential to avoid future liabilities.

    ​

    We guide clients through the legal process from start to finish, preparing the necessary documentation and ensuring your rights and obligations are fully understood.

  • Planning issues can affect the use, development, or future value of commercial property. Matters such as planning permission, land use restrictions, and regulatory requirements often require specialist legal advice.

    ​

    We work closely with businesses, developers, and landowners to navigate planning matters efficiently. Our aim is to help remove obstacles and keep your project moving forward.

  • Commercial property finance involves securing funding for the purchase, refinancing, or development of business property. These transactions often involve complex lending arrangements and legal documentation.

    ​

    Our team works alongside lenders, borrowers, and investors to ensure finance arrangements are completed efficiently. We provide practical legal advice that supports your commercial goals while protecting your interests.

  • Managing a commercial property portfolio involves overseeing multiple properties while ensuring legal compliance, protecting investments, and responding to changing business needs. Ongoing legal support can play a key role in maintaining long-term value.

    ​

    We provide strategic legal advice tailored to property investors, landlords, and businesses with growing portfolios. Our team helps you manage risk while supporting the continued success of your investments.

  • Purchasing a franchise often involves acquiring both business rights and commercial property interests under carefully negotiated agreements. Understanding your legal obligations before proceeding is essential.

    ​

    We advise clients throughout the purchase process, reviewing agreements, identifying potential risks, and helping you move forward with confidence as you invest in your future.

  • Secured borrowing allows individuals or businesses to obtain finance using property or other valuable assets as security. It is important to fully understand the legal and financial implications before entering into any arrangement.

    ​

    We provide clear, straightforward advice on secured lending transactions, ensuring documentation is prepared correctly and your interests remain protected throughout the process.

  • Commercial landlord and tenant relationships can involve a wide range of legal matters, including lease obligations, rent disputes, repairs, renewals, and possession issues. Addressing these matters promptly can help prevent costly disputes.

    At Green & Olive Solicitors, we advise both landlords and tenants on their rights and responsibilities. We work to resolve issues efficiently while protecting your commercial interests and maintaining valuable business relationships wherever possible.

  • Site assembly involves bringing together multiple parcels of land to create a larger development opportunity. These projects often require careful negotiation, coordination, and legal planning before development can begin.
