Who should the tenant serve a notice on ?
If you are the tenant of business premises benefiting from security of tenure and wish to serve a Section 27 Notice (to bring the existing tenancy to an end) or a Section 26 Notice (to request a new tenancy) then it is important that the notice is served on the correct landlord. This may not necessarily be the person whom rent is paid to. The tenant can serve a notice on the person purporting to be the landlord under Section 40(3) of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 requesting that person disclose the information. That person is obliged by law to respond to the notice and give the information.
