Consent to Let

The terms of the lease state under Section 5.8.3;“Not to underlet the whole of the Premises without obtaining the written consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld and which shall be deemed to be given in respect of any shorthold lettings of six months (unless there has been a breach or alleged breach of any of the Tenant’s covenants during the previous twelve months in which case consent will be required)) and to supply to the Company full details of any proposed underlessee and (unless waived by the Landlord) up to three references (as required by the Company) concerning such underlessee and to procure that such underlessee or tenant at his own expense enters into direct covenants with the Landlord and the Company and each of them in the form set out in the Sixth Schedule hereto”

Having considered the terms of the lease and not wishing to burden leaseholders or their agents with extra administration the Board of Victory Hill Management Company Limited have agreed that lettings will have deemed to have consent subject to the provision of certain required information and documentation within 3 months of the letting along with a small administration fee to cover the cost of overseeing the process.
