About this document
This short agreement grants a licence to occupy rooms or space for business use.
That it doesn't create a lease will be the most important feature for most users. A lease creates an interest in land and gives the tenant additional rights - particularly with respect to stay in the property when the lease term expires (security of tenure). A licence agreement does not give the occupier the same rights to stay.
This agreement includes minimal and usual provisions in simple format, specifically to avoid it being interpreted as a lease under the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954. What is excluded is as critical as to what has been included.
The document might be used to:
let spare office rooms, unused workshops or warehouse space to another business
bring in another trader on a shop floor
rent office space on a short term, flexible basis, for example as 'incubator' space for start-up businesses
let a parcel of spare land to another business to store vehicles or machinery
Payment provisions: all payments the tenant might have to make
Use allowed: restrictions on how the occupier can use the property

Perfect for pop up shop. Easy to alter and with useful information. Thank you. Would recommend to anyone seeking relatively standard legal doc, as judge Rinder says... "did you have a contract?"!
By Jennifer Smith 17 October 2016
Easy to download, add detail and print. Knowing there is a review service is reassuring. I would certainly recommend Net Lawmen.

Exactly what I was looking for.
By Jan Lize 15 July 2013
I am a property landlord and it is crucial that these documents meet all legal requirements (which is their most important feature), whilst also protecting my own interests; cost is also important. I have benefited by Net Lawman's documents through having peace of mind in that I have secure contracts in place. Having previously purchased other documents from Net Lawman, I would certainly recommend them to others.

Useful and quick document.Service.
By Chris Jones 10 January 2014
Fast, efficient service. Website easy to use. Document free from legalese and easy to follow. Reasonable price - which is much cheaper and less time-consuming than a personal visit to a solicitor. Will now need to see if the document stands the test of time and prevents any legal issues arising in the future.
By John Wilson 10 September 2013
The service is excellent with by by return receipt of the paperwork and essentially for me, easy retrieval and use.I am trying to impress another lay person with my supposed knowledge and grasp of the legal situation and the paperwork hopefully gives that aura of professionalism which might just be enough to keep the matter entirely out of legal hands with the desired cost savings all round.

A bit pricey for how basic it was
Net Lawman responds 04 November 2013
Thanks for your review comments. We are sorry that you thought our document was poor value for money. We write documents to be as comprehensive as possible, but this is one where we cannot make the document any more flexible or effective by adding additional paragraphs.We try and price our documents competitively compared to other online document retailers, and of course, our documents are far less expensive than engaging a solicitor.

I did not think that this document was appropriate for my purpose, have been pleased with others that I have purchased from you.
Net Lawman responds 19 February 2014
We would love to help. Just tell us the problem.
