Most people see a regear as a formality.

The smartest operators see it as an opportunity.

Handled early, a regear can transform your portfolio.

A lease regear is more than a renewal.
It is the moment to decide whether a site still fits the business.
The terms, the rent, and the structure can all be reviewed.

When approached early, a regear can unlock real value.
Lower rent.
Rent free periods.
Capital contributions.
Even the return of rent deposits.

Handled too late, it often becomes reactive.
The leverage shifts.
The costs rise.
And what could have been an opportunity turns into an obligation.

At Cedar Dean, we help leadership teams take control of that moment.
We start the regear process up to two years before expiry, reviewing each site through three lenses of performance, affordability, and opportunity.
We prepare the strategy, the valuation data, and the landlord narrative that turn negotiation into partnership.

Cedar Dean: Experts in Sustainable Leases

After the 2008 financial crash, founder David Abramson saw too many businesses forced into insolvency by unaffordable rents. With costs still rising, ignoring your lease portfolio is no longer an option. Unchecked rents drain EBITDA, lock up capital, and add risk.

Since 2008, we’ve delivered over £500m in savings for some of the UK’s best-known brands. Our mission remains the same: fair, sustainable leases that unlock opportunity.
