Property problems: Tenant may have to keep shop open longer
Q. I am the owner of a small block of shops that are tenanted. One of the tenants has begun opening late and shutting early, and sometimes not opening at all. I am not happy about this. Am I able to do anything about it?

If the tenant is in breach, you should consider serving written notice requiring the tenant to remedy it within a reasonable period.
What constitutes a reasonable period will depend on the facts of each case and its particular circumstances.
If the tenant fails to remedy the breach within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to terminate the lease and take back possession of the premises.
