commercial lease. Fast.

£375 + VAT per party

Our leases are drafted on a balanced, market-standard footing that's fair to both landlord and tenant. You can read the main terms on our What's in our leases? page.

Aqqord is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. The negotiation you would expect the solicitors to have has already been done, so you don't need a solicitor to use Aqqord, and plenty of people complete a lease with us without instructing one.

If you'd still like one, you can give them access to the heads of terms and the lease on the platform. They can review the lease and propose changes to the terms on your behalf, and once both parties agree a change, the lease wording updates automatically to match.

Then you don't pay. There are no abortive fees: nothing upfront, nothing part-way through, nothing for drafting or negotiation. The fee only kicks in once your lease is agreed. Start a draft, change your mind for any reason, walk away: it costs you nothing.

There's no subscription either, so you can try it on a single letting, or start a free draft from a past deal's heads of terms to see what the lease looks like.

We take it to completion. The £375 + VAT per party fee is all you pay Aqqord, from heads of terms through to a fully executed and registered lease: drafting, real-time online negotiation between the parties, electronic signature, and 1954 Act notices and declarations where the lease is contracted out. The SDLT or Land Transaction Tax (LTT) return and any Land Registry registration are your responsibility, and Aqqord can assist with both.

No extra Aqqord charges. The only other costs are paid to others, not to us: any SDLT or LTT due, the Land Registry fee where the lease needs registering, and £5 to a solicitor if the tenant makes a statutory declaration.

No. Aqqord is a solicitor-built drafting and completion platform, not a fill-in-the-blank template. Our SRA-regulated solicitors wrote the clause library and the rules that decide how each lease is put together, including how bespoke variations are worked in. The result is legally binding, acceptable to lenders, and has the same effect as a lease drafted by hand.

Aqqord is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, the same body that regulates every solicitor's firm. Qualified solicitors have overseen the drafting, we carry professional indemnity insurance, and you have the protections of an SRA-regulated firm: a formal complaints procedure and SRA oversight.

To be clear about what that does and doesn't mean: Aqqord doesn't advise either party or act as your solicitor. You get the protections of an SRA-regulated firm around the drafting and completion, not advice on whether the deal is right for you.

Because Aqqord is SRA-regulated, we carry professional indemnity insurance, the same as any solicitor's firm. So every lease has that insurance behind it, and you have the protection of a formal complaints procedure and SRA oversight.

Our leases cover most common scenarios, including break clauses, alienation provisions, contracted-out terms, rent reviews (open market or RPI/CPI), rent deposits, service charges, rent-free or stepped rent periods, attaching a lease plan, and more. Tell us what the deal looks like and the drafting follows.

Yes. A renewal on Aqqord isn't a copy of the old lease. It's a fresh lease drafted from the new terms, and the clause library is kept up to date, so it will reflect the law as it stands. Your accrued rights are preserved.

No, England and Wales only. Scottish and Northern Irish commercial property law works very differently from English and Welsh law, so we don't cover those jurisdictions.
