A flat is a separate set of premises which is divided horizontally from some other part of the building and is constructed or adapted for the purposes of a dwelling. Planning ahead: the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987 When developing mixed use premises it is important to plan ahead especially where a developer intends to dispose of the freehold of the whole building or grant a long lease of the commercial parts as an investment.
