Learning Objectives:
- Identify expected or recent changes to the ADLS Deed of Lease and their practical implications
- Understand how potential updates may impact commercial lease negotiations for landlords and tenants
ADLS Deed of Lease: Where Are we Now?
Though not officially released, there’s speculation that a new edition of The Law Association of New Zealand’s (ADLS) Deed of Lease is on the horizon. As the most commonly used document for commercial property leases across New Zealand, any updates to this form will very likely bring important changes for both landlords and tenants. Assuming this new edition is available ahead of the webinar, we will set out the key changes which have been made and provide a perspective on these.
- Stay ahead of the curve by keeping an eye on potential developments that could affect your next lease negotiation. If the new edition of the Deed of Lease is not available, another interesting commercial leasing related topic will be discussed.
