Toalson 1st Gear July 6, 2014 Share July 6, 2014 Wonder if anyone can help to interpret if the following scenario is against the anti competition laws locally. Imagine a landlord of a commercial building decided not to renew the lease of the existing tenant even though the tenant is willing to pay for an increased in rental and then choose to bring in another tenant operating the same business to take over the space. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman888 Moderator July 6, 2014 Share July 6, 2014 (edited) Where was the anti competition law came in your scenario? The landlord bring one tenant to replace another one of the same trade. Edited July 6, 2014 by Jman888 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This nothing about Anti-Competition????? When the lease expires the landlord can decide not to renew but to b fair he sud at least give the old tenent the offer to pay the new higher rent which he is going to charge the new tenent. But then the landlord can just refuse to renew the lease giving one one of many reasons why. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's a prime location and new tenant willing to pay landlord a one time premium on top of rental. Absolutely nothing to do with anti-competition.

Mustank Hypersonic July 7, 2014 Share July 7, 2014 dont see how is this got to do with anti competition laws this seems to be a private arrangeement between 2 parties. if the landlord likes another tenant even though he can afford a lower rent, private issue what how does anti compeition law comes in? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic July 7, 2014 Share July 7, 2014 (edited) there's nothing a tenant can do about it 'cos the landlord calls the shot. The property belongs to landlord and he can don't renew the lease without giving any reasons whatsoever. Could it be the tenant is tardy about paying up rental, cleanliness, etc etc??? Just thinking.

No anti-competition case here leh. The landlord has the rights to choose the tenant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic July 7, 2014 Share July 7, 2014 (edited) not only that, the presentation of shop front, the branding, the operating hours, how many times tenant must renovate and when, some even need to hand over cash register POS to landlords for them to tax.

Tigerwoods Turbocharged July 7, 2014 Share July 7, 2014 landlord say the customer is tire of the old shop?Lets face it, sometimes some shops sell the things but the shop settings are just not blending/complementing with the other shops. I'm saying this base on the commercial building is a mall. If its some office rental, then I say something is fishy, but hey, if both willing to pay same rentals, Landlord still have the final say...

Toalson 1st Gear July 7, 2014 Author Share July 7, 2014 (edited) Forgot to add another dimension. The new tenant is a joint venture with the landlord doing the same business. Would this have any impact? Sorry for the noobie questions. TIA to all. This is not a mall but a Clubhouse open to public and it is not a commerical shop but more of a service provider Edited July 7, 2014 by Toalson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
