An interest in land is:

• a leasehold estate in the land;
• an easement or servitude;
• a licence to occupy land.

Where the interest in land is a leasehold estate in the land it can be a head-lease, sub-lease or under-lease.

Commercial amount is the amount that would have been given in an arm's length transaction.

Commercial premium is the premium that would have been given in an arm's length transaction.

Commercial rent is the rent that could reasonably have been expected to be paid for the subordinate interest, taking account of any premium payable for the grant of that interest, if the transaction had been at arms length.

Granting an interest in land includes agreeing to grant any such interest.
