Tenancy at will
A standard document that provides a template agreement for creating a tenancy at will for commercial property located in England and Wales. This standard document is designed for situations where parties need to arrange the tenant's occupation of a property quickly, often as an interim solution while a formal, long-term lease is being negotiated. The agreement establishes a tenancy that is terminable at any time by either the landlord or the tenant, offering flexibility for both sides. It outlines the fundamental obligations of the parties, including the tenant's responsibilities regarding rent payment, restrictions on property use, alterations and alienation, along with provisions for utility charges. The agreement also details the landlord's obligations concerning property access. This standard document is intended for commercial contexts and includes important considerations for when a tenancy at will may be inappropriate, such as residential settings in Wales governed by the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 (RHWA 2016), and highlights the "right to rent" requirements under the Immigration Act 2014 (IA 2014) .
