Rent Review Law

In 1975, I pioneered the idea of specialising in negotiating rent reviews. (At that time, chartered surveyors were not allowed to call themselves specialists and I think it was probably as a result of the widespread publicity generated by my approach that the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors subsequently changed its rules.)

In 1978, I published a pamphlet "The Framework of Rent Review Clauses" which received free publicity in the leading law and property journals. To make the information more accessible for landlords and tenants, in 1983, I published a 28-page booklet ' How to do a Rent Review' - which was an instant hit; and in a letter to me was described by Professor John Ratcliffe, then Dean of the Faculty of the Built Environment at the Polytechnic of the South Bank, London as an "excellent digest of a particular complex area of professional practice and study".

In 1988 I published a booklet "The Psychology of Rent Review Negotiation" and after that numerous pamphlets and newsletters; and over the years, my contributions to the world of rent review are such that many of my original ideas nowadays pervade popular thinking.

I delight in helping to educate and sharing knowledge so, at
Rent Review Law, I provide possibly the only free on-line resource about rent review law in practice in England and Wales.
