A New Landlord and Tenant

Description

This text is designed to complement the author's "A New Land Law", integrating with that work in its simplified terminology, its emphasis on the registrability of titles to land, and its differentiation of leasehold ownership rights and short tenancies. The book considers the impact of the Human Rights Act 1998 and incorporates the changes to repossession procedures implemented by the Woolf Reforms. Law Commission proposals considered include the paper on Termination of Tenancies (1999). In addition, the book examines the large amount of reported landlord and tenant cases.

Peter Sparkes is Professor of Law at the University of Southampton.

A New Landlord and Tenant is clearly unparalleled in length and breadth and is the most up-to-date book in its area. As an 'academic' textbook covering the regulation of leasehold property it is strongly recommended to those students enrolled on modules specifically concerned with studying the law of landlord and tenant. -- Ian Turner, Coventry University * The Law Teacher * This is a considerable book of massive scholarship. As a guide to the vast land which is landlord and tenant law it is comprehensive and detailed. -- Dr Harold Wilkinson, Solicitor * New Law Journal *
