Insights
Considering the options
Throughout March, our Changing Landscape programme is highlighting the importance of retirement and succession planning and this week we are focusing on the options for tenant farmers.
Before a tenant can consider their opportunities for retirement and / or succession, they must determine their basis of occupation, as the options available can vary significantly depending on the type of tenancy agreement held.
The majority of tenanted agricultural holdings (where tenants benefit from exclusive occupation) are let on either:
Agricultural Holdings Act agreements (AHA’s) – pre 1st September 1995, or;
Farm Business Tenancies (FBT’s) – post 1st September 1995
AHA’s normally provide tenants with security of tenure for their lifetime and can often carry statutory succession rights. FBT’s on the other hand generally provide limited security beyond the fixed term, resulting in the parties needing to negotiate future terms.
It is therefore key to understand the basis of your occupation and your rights.
Click here to read our guide, which highlights key questions and factors to consider based on the type of tenancy you hold.
In both scenarios, the questions highlighted in the guide are just a starting point and we would always advise having early conversations with a professional advisor to help you plan for the future.
Client Feedback

We have moved house several times over the years so feel well qualified to recognise good efficient service when we see it. All the way through, from the initial valuation to the day of completion, everyone at GSC Grays made us feel our sale really mattered. We were kept well informed of the progress of the sale and any questions we had were answered promptly and clearly. We would definitely recommend GSC Grays to anyone planning to buy or sell a property.

Thank you for all your help during our move. It all got quite stressful towards the end and it was great to have you at the end of the phone offering reassurance and advice. We got there in the end and we are delighted with our new home! Just wanted to let you know how much your help was appreciated!

I just wanted to pass on my appreciation to the whole team for the fantastic job they did for me. The Sales Progression team had a particularly tricky job as the sale was less than easy but they were all amazing.

GSC Grays were recommended to me and in the years which I have worked with them, I have found their approach excellent. They take a long term view and provide exactly the right balance between pushing things on whilst keeping me informed – I am delighted to have them on board.

Excellent HomeBuyer Report service. Survey completed promptly and initial comments delivered by telephone within twenty-four hours with comprehensive written report received by post shortly after. Clear, concise documentation, which includes advice on rectifying defects and issues that legal advisors may wish to investigate, all professionally presented in a bound booklet enabling a timely informed decision to be achieved in respect of the purchase of the property. Thoroughly recommended.
