Real estate podcast: from insolvent tenants to furniture returns – navigating chattel issues

This episode explores what happens when tenants leave behind furniture, equipment, and other chattels at the end of a lease. Suzanne Gill and Ben Dunbar discuss how landlords can determine who owns these items and the risks of wrongly disposing of them. They also cover practical challenges in modern furnished offices, the impact of insolvency on clearance obligations, and why clear drafting, inventories, and communication between parties are essential.
