What is a Wayleave Agreement?

The definition of a wayleave agreement in the UK is a legal document that allows a third party to use a landowners property for a specific reason. Usually this would be something that benefits the public such as a road or highway during property development. Adjustments to commercial property such as installing fibre optic cables for increased connectivity in an area may also require a wayleave agreement. It can constitute a range of other facilities that cross a landowners property. The agreement sets up a licence between two parties for installation and maintenance of this utility.

FAQs

The cost of a solicitor helping you with a Wayleave Agreement is adjustable based on different factors including how complex the requirements are from both parties. Finding an agreement that suits both parties might be an easy process but sometimes it can take longer. However, you can find out more information about our charges here, but be sure to get in touch with us for a more accurate quote. 

Wayleave payments are usually paid annually unless you specifically negotiate a lump sum to be paid directly. These annual payments can vary quite significantly, but they usually are made up as a percentage of the property value. 

Separate to a Wayleave agreement being set up, is an easement. Easements are attached to the property and usually form part of the deed. An easement is the right to enter or use a property without the need to own it, which is vastly different to how a Wayleave agreement works. If you do have further questions about easement, or need any legal advice, Black Norman’s solicitors can also help you in this area.
