In commercial property, a Calderbank offer is a written offer to settle, frequently in relation to a rent review made “without prejudice” save as to costs. Either landlord or tenant can make a Calderbank offer. A Calderbank offer may only be referred to after the Arbitrator, tribunal or court has made their decision on the substantive matter. The intention of a Calderbank offer is to protect a party against costs.
