This six hour course (three hours a day over two days online), will provide hard won industry advice and practical training to deal with the conflicting demands and legal set ups of Leasehold and Commercial buildings.

Course Contents

Residential and commercial management: an excellent knowledge of one does not imply a competence to handle the other.

The expectations and perceptions of commercial occupiers are often very different from those of the residential occupiers, and a Landlord whose main interest is receiving rent from commercial occupiers has yet different objectives and perspectives.  These must all be understood. 

This course will help examine the practical difficulties imposed by the different statutory and regulatory regimes for commercial and residential property. Pulling on case studies and up to date trainer knowledge this course will help you navigate the demands of managing mixed use developments.
