Lease renegotiation
Leases are often signed for many years at a time, while the market can shift quickly. A strategic renegotiation can give you better terms, more flexibility and lower costs – without moving.
We analyse the lease, benchmark it against the market and negotiate on your behalf. You keep a good relationship with your landlord – and negotiate from a position of strength.
Are you paying more than market rent?
- What is today’s market rent for our premises?
- Can we extend the lease on better terms?
- Do we have the flexibility to scale up or down?
- How do we best position ourselves before renegotiating?
- What is market practice for rent-free periods or discounts on renewal?

Frequently asked questions
When should we start renegotiating?
Ideally 12–24 months before the lease expires. The earlier you start, the more leverage you have – and alternative premises can be used as a bargaining chip.
Can’t we just renegotiate ourselves?
You can, but landlords usually hold more market data and experience. A professional adviser gives you a much stronger starting point – typically resulting in lower rent and more flexible terms.
What can a renegotiation cover besides rent?
Lease length, extension options, space adjustments, service charges and operations, flexibility as needs change, and allocation of maintenance responsibility.
