Commercial property – landlord and tenant – rent review – hypothetical letting – where a rent review clause omitted to specify the length of term of the hypothetical letting, whether the hypothetical term was to be assumed to be equal to the residue of the actual term remaining unexpired at the review date
Summary

The rent review clause under a 35-year lease did not specify the length of term of the hypothetical letting, so this was to be assumed to be equal to the residue of the actual term remaining unexpired at the review date.
