UNLOCKING HIDDEN VALUE FROM PROPERTY

With pressure on all of us to make assets work harder, this session will highlight some innovative ideas to help both landlords and tenants, including:

  • Utilising previously considered ‘dead space’ – telecoms, advertising, walkways
  • Unconventional alternatives to sub-letting space
  • Legal implications and alternatives
  • Joint venture arrangements, including tenants working together to share costs and landlords and tenants working together to produce all-win results
  • Re-shaping existing leases for everyone’s benefit

Rufus Ballaster, Partner, Carter Lemon Camerons LLP

HEADS OF TERMS - HOW TO GET THEM RIGHT
With yet more disputes over whether arrangements are or are not legally enforceable, this is a timely update on this familiar yet often misunderstood phrase.
  • Heads of Terms/Heads of Agreement/Memorandum of Understanding/Letters of Intent - is there magic in the words?
  • When are they legally binding?
  • What exactly do the expressions "Subject to Contract" and "Without Prejudice" mean?
  • How can Heads of Terms affect a subsequent contract?
  • How to draft Heads of Terms - Dos and Don'ts

Philip O’Loughlin, Partner, Head of Property Litigation, Ward Hadaway

SUSTAINABILITY - WHAT COST, WHAT VALUE?
This session will provide you with a commercially focused update on the latest sustainability developments and how they are likely to affect property portfolio tactics and values.  It will address strategic matters which need to be considered given that 'green' issues are becoming increasingly fundamental to any major property industry decision. In addition to a general update on recent sustainability developments, specific topics to be covered during the talk include:
  • Sustainability and commercial property values
  • An overview of green leases
  • Documenting sustainability objectives
  • Sustainability obsolescence – what is it?

Paul Spaven, Partner, Tuffin Ferraby Taylor LLP

PROPERTY MARKETS FOLLOWING THE GREAT RECESSION

  • Global prospects
  • Fiscal & Monetary policy
  • Bank debt & equity finance
  • Rental growth, building costs, the Green agenda and the local Liverpool market
  • Property investment; the good and the disastrous

Angus McIntosh, Partner & Head of Research, King Sturge
