When rent should not be accepted

Abstract

Demanding or accepting rent under the wrong circumstances can give rise to numerous problems. It may amount to the creation of a new tenancy, an affirmation that an old tenancy is being extended, or a waiver of a right of forfeiture due to breaches of covenant. It may also involve rent reviews and lease renewals.
