The A-Z Practical Issues in Tenancies Management ITC School Of Laws
Price: SGD 450

    Course details

    Property is arguably one of the most valuable fixed assets of an organization. This workshop course is concerned with the use and administration for the purpose of a company’s own business. Managers are employed to specialize in property administration.

    Property administration includes interfacing with landlords or tenants and /or agents; ensuring compliance with covenants under leases; interfacing with and making claims on insurers. Assisting with planning and implementation of relocation, interfacing with trespassers and neighbours and overseeing the re-negotiation of leases, agreeing rent reviews and extensions and renewals etc. 

    The workshop will address the practical aspects of tenancy properties, strategies, administration and control with practical solutions drawn from good and bad experiences. Case studies will be used to demonstrate practical aspects of tenancies administration and facilities management. Checklists and registers will ease tenancies management. There will be a walk-through of a sample tenancy agreement to appreciate more clearly a clause by clause analysis of tenancy provisions. There will be a quiz demonstrating the dangers of entering a lease without appreciating fully the legalities, commitment and potential downside. You do not need to have a legal knowledge to attend this workshop. 

    This workshop will also equip you on the practical legal aspects of risk management in leasing and tenancy properties.
