What is the effect of a break notice?
A break notice allows a party (usually the tenant) to terminate a lease before its expiration date. Upon the effective date specified in the notice, the lease is terminated, and the parties' rights and obligations under the lease come to an end.
Who do you serve a break notice on?
A break notice should be served on the party specified in the lease agreement as the recipient of such notices, typically the landlord or their authorised representative. It is advisable to review the lease agreement or seek legal advice to determine the correct recipient.
How do you serve a break clause notice?
To serve a break clause notice, send a written notice to the designated recipient specified in the lease agreement. Use a reliable method of service, such as recorded delivery or email with a read receipt, to ensure proof of delivery.
What makes a break notice valid?
To make a break notice valid, it must comply with the specific requirements stated in the lease agreement, including the method of service, notice period, and any other conditions or formalities mentioned. Failure to meet these requirements may invalidate the notice.
Can a break notice be signed electronically?
Yes, a break notice can be signed electronically if both parties have agreed to conduct business electronically and the method of electronic signature used satisfies the legal requirements, such as the use of a secure electronic signature platform.
