Hi thank you for your question, I will assist you with this.

 

Do you have a written agreement with the current owner and is your space defined in this as being for your exclusive use?

 

 

Customer: replied 12 months ago.

no no written agreement but we can get one written up before the salon is signed over to the new owners. will this make a difference?

Expert:  Kasare replied 12 months ago.

How long have you been there? what are the current terms and conditions? Have you asked why the new owner considers it appropriate for you to share when you rent the room/space? What have they said?

 

Please provide as much information as possible.

Customer: replied 12 months ago.

i have been there since march this year and the current terms and conditions were just a verbal agreement between me and the current owner that i will rent the whole room for £60 a week. i have spoken to the current owner who is going to ask her solicitor if it is a good idea for her to get a written agreement made up today considering she is signing over the salon in the next week or so.

the new owners were basically saying when i asked them why they are doing it, business is business and they wanna make money so iv got to put up and shut up.

by putting another nail technician in my rented space or in the salon at all is going to damage my business.
