Understanding the Challenges

Technical property disputes can often arise between landlords and tenants, particularly in leasing agreements with significant investments at stake.

Whether you are involved in a dispute over maintenance and repairs, use of the property, or environmental or safety regulations, it is important to work with experts in the field and to gather as much evidence as possible to support your position. Consider engaging in alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation or arbitration, but be prepared for the possibility of litigation if necessary.

Common Technical Property Disputes

Maintenance and Repairs

One of the most common technical property disputes between landlords and tenants involves the maintenance and repair of the leased property. In commercial leases, landlords are typically responsible for maintaining the property's structural integrity and making any necessary repairs to ensure the safety of tenants and visitors. However, tenants are generally responsible for maintaining their own equipment and fixtures and for keeping the property in good condition. Disputes can arise when there is confusion over which party is responsible for certain repairs or maintenance tasks, or when one party fails to fulfill their responsibilities.

Use of the Property

Another common technical property dispute between landlords and tenants is related to the use of the property. In commercial leases, landlords typically have certain restrictions on how the property can be used, such as prohibiting certain types of businesses or activities. Tenants may dispute these restrictions if they believe they are too restrictive or if they believe the landlord is unfairly preventing them from conducting their business as they see fit.

Environmental Regulations and Safety Codes

In some cases, technical property disputes between landlords and tenants may also involve issues related to environmental regulations or safety codes. For example, a tenant may argue that the property is not up to code or that it is unsafe to occupy, while the landlord may argue that the tenant is using the property in a way that violates environmental regulations or safety standards.
