About this lease
This lease has been drawn for letting a unit on an industrial estate or business park. The use could be for any purpose, such as a workshop, factory, depot or warehouse. The unit could be one of a block under one roof or a stand-alone building. The lease includes the use of shared services on the park or estate, such as security, access roads, signs and parking and many other practical points. All the features you would expect and many practical options. Full service charge provisions are included.
This is a professionally drawn, very comprehensive lease with massive legal protection for the landlord including a long menu of “do’s” and “don’ts”.
This lease is not a compromise between the interests of the parties. It prefers the landlord’s interest. We think that is the best start point. If you wish to make concessions to your tenant, that is fine, but we want you have those choices.
It includes service charge provisions to provide 100% recovery of service costs.

I wasn't sure which document was the most appropriate so I emailed an explanation of my needs. Often you never even receive a reply, but I got a very helpful email the next working day with suggestions of appropriate documents. The person who replied also offered to send me a second document free of charge if I was still unsure. Excellent service.

Well priced and easy to understand and read. Good for basic DIY legals without the hassle of engaging solicitors. Would recommend

Review of the Australian version
The lease was very comprehensive, covering any situation. So it required some editing but the guidance notes were helpful. I now feel that I have a document which will enable me to deal with difficult situations. Thank you.
