Tenancies, Licences and Grazing Agreements

Do people rent land off you for their horse? Are you considering setting up an equine business on your land?

It is extremely important to record the arrangement in writing in order to avoid problems such as:

• An inability to recover possession of your land when you want to;
• Tax issues;
• A claim for compensation from the occupier of your land;
• Devaluation of your property;
• Expense in recovering possession of your land or sorting out any problems;

There are a number of possible arrangements for keeping horses on land ranging from livery agreements to Farm Business Tenancy agreements. We can provide comprehensive advice as to the type of arrangement that will best suit your needs and situation and draft a formal agreement setting out the terms of the arrangement including the duration, the fee and provisions for termination of the arrangement.
