Short definition

A scheduled review of base rent during the term, typically to open-market rent.

Full definition

Standard UK office leases include a five-yearly upward-only open-market rent review. Negotiate collared and capped reviews to fix a minimum and maximum movement. Continental European leases more commonly use CPI indexation.

Why this matters for Class A leasing

Rent review is part of the lease economics vocabulary that institutional Class A occupiers, landlords, and advisers use across UK, EU markets. Understanding it correctly affects how you read lease documents, model occupancy economics, and benchmark deal terms across cities. Class A Atlas tracks regional variation alongside the global standard so cross-border occupiers can translate quickly.
