Partner Jayne Speers discusses green leases and the opportunities to be found for both tenants and landlords when agreeing to green lease provisions.

The real estate market is craving optimism and is hungry for future opportunities. That’s why we’ve launched Optimism and Opportunity - an evolving, upbeat campaign focusing on the real estate market of the future and ideas to inspire hope and debate.
The COVID-19 crisis has catapulted all of us into the future. Trends and ideas that were once distant forecasts are our daily reality and we now need to meet the challenges of this radically changing world.
We are working closely with our clients and contacts across the market to share these ideas with you. Focusing on market growth areas, opportunities and future trends our hub has been designed to be an 'easy to digest' part of your day.
We would welcome hearing your views and encourage you to join us in debating and preparing for the future.
Opportunities are best shared as part of an upbeat industry-wide conversation, so please do let us have your views, comments and queries sent either direct to our contributors, to your usual contact or to realestate@eversheds-sutherland.com .
