The MEES Regulations are now actively impacting the commercial property market.  Whilst many focus on the popular ‘ESG’ trend, the real impact for most stakeholders is being felt through the legislative impact of MEES and the regulations’ sharply tightening requirements.  This talk will look at a number of applied examples across different property types/sectors to identify the impact – and the actions/tactics to be employed by respective parties in scenarios such as:

• Lease negotiations – how tenants can use MEES to drive a harder bargain, and how landlords can rebut such an approach
• Property management – how landlords’ property management approaches can leave them facing issues and disputes
• Alienation – the blame game afoot when a tenant can no longer sublet their property due to MEES
• Reasonable refusal – what can a landlord reasonably refuse when it comes to MEES?
• Lease wording – will the engineered MEES carve-outs work in practice for Landlords?
• Dilapidations – is the result of MEES really a sea of £0 dilapidations settlements?
