Rent review clauses: some recent interpretations

Abstract

Shows that rent review clauses offer a great deal of scope for interpretation. Discusses the basic terms associated with rent review clauses. Reviews recent cases taken to the Court of Appeal and the court′s decisions. Concludes that the landlord usually benefits from the strict literal interpretation, but with a swing towards a more liberal reading of the document the tenant can often benefit.
