Strengthening the Landlord’s Position - AGAs, Rent Deposits & Guarantors

Introduction

Weaker tenants adversely affect capital value, but this does not necessarily need to be the case. Authorised guarantee agreements (AGAs), guarantors and rent deposits can make a really big difference to both landlords and tenants.

A tenant backed up by a strong guarantee or a pot of money held by the landlord can change the investment value of a property.

This virtual classroom seminar will combine brief presentations with a series of scenarios drafted to reflect common situations encountered in practice.

What You Will Learn

This live and interactive course will cover the following:

• The main types of security available to a landlord (both when a new lease is granted and on assignment), considering the pros and cons of each
• How to protect a landlord’s position against a tenant’s guarantor
• Possible landlord remedies where the tenant fails to pay their rent or goes insolvent
• Key points relating to AGAs on assignment, including who can be required to give the AGA and what it should include?

Recording of live sessions: Soon after the Learn Live session has taken place you will be able to go back and access the recording - should you wish to revisit the material discussed.
