GP Premises Lease Renewals
Secure fair terms that protect your practice for the long term
A lease is required when the property is to be occupied by someone who does not own the property. There is an increasing trend for incoming partners not being keen to buy into the property and, conversely, retiring partners not keen to sell the property. This can result in a lease being required. Entering into a lease requires the approval of the NHS. PCS regular advises practices on the steps required to pursue getting a lease in place and to advise on appropriate lease terms before a solicitor then drafts the lease.
When a lease is coming to an end, PCS represents practices or landlords on the appropriate action required. This depends on the intentions of the parties as to whether the practice wishes to remain in occupation and have a new lease or is seeking to relocate.
Why your GP premises' lease matters
Your surgery premises are at the heart of your practice. When lease terms are unfavourable, they can strain your finances and restrict future growth.
A lease renewal is more than just negotiating rent; it’s an opportunity to secure stability, flexibility and the right protections to keep delivering care without disruption.
If these concerns sound familiar, you’re not alone. These are exactly the issues Primary Care Surveyors helps GP practices resolve every day.
Common questions from practices
Are we currently paying too much rent under our lease?
What if our landlord proposes terms we can’t agree with?
