Summary

The court found on the evidence that insertion of an upwards-and-downwards rent review would have an immediate impact on the value of the landlords' reversion and ordered an upwards-only review at the end of the fifth year of a 10-year term. The evidence in that case was that a tenant would not pay substantially more rent for the insertion of an upwards-and-downwards clause.
