We know how important it is to ensure that your property as a businesses main asset performs and suits the businesses needs.
Older buildings maybe inefficient and have alternative use values greater than the current use employed. A change of planning and relocation to fit for purpose buildings can boost a company’s fortunes.
The transfer of a freehold into a SIPP pension scheme can unlock much needed working capital without losing control. We are experienced in providing valuation advice to pension trustees and financial institutions on this type of sale and leaseback transaction.
As Professional Valuers we like to be proactive in our approach and in turn add value to your asset wherever possible.
Such a wide topic and so often not thought about when taking on new premises.
Why should we get a survey?
Whether Freehold or Leasehold it is important to ensure your buildings integrity.
Not all property and or clients will benefit from a full structural survey so we tailor our reports to meet your need. Regardless of age position and construction type we can provide the report you require.
Taking on an existing lease or thinking of taking a new one then you need to understand the repairing covenant existing or proposed as this can have a significant effect on your liability.
Once you have signed there is no renegotiation and leasehold dilapidations claims can be a complex and expensive process that can be avoided by taking the right advice before commitment.
Your solicitor will advise you as to the legal issues, we can advise on when and if works need to be done and supply budget costings to enable you to consider whether the premises are right for.
We also undertake project management and party wall issues and our Consultant is qualified to provide Asbestos reports to comply with the control of Asbestos at work regulations.
The majority of commercial property has to have one of these prepared and available to potential purchasers on request.
Our Consultant is a fully qualified EPC assessor regulated by the RICS. We provide EPC’s as a confidential independent service and do not require an agency instruction
We can provide a full report with recommendations on who to improve your buildings efficiency at a competitive rate.
Local authorities (usually via their Trading Standards Officers) are responsible for enforcing the requirement to have an EPC . Failure to make available an EPC when required by the Regulations means you may be liable to a civil penalty charge notice.
Trading Standards Officers may act on complaints or undertake their own investigations.
Failure to supply an EPC following a request will result in a penalty charge notice.
When a building is being constructed or modified it is the responsibility of the person carrying out the construction to give an EPC and recommendation report to the building owner and to notify Building Control that this has been done.
As soon as a building is in the process of being offered for sale or to let, it is the responsibility of the Vendor or Lessor to make available an EPC to prospective buyers free of charge.
The penalties for non compliance can range up to a maximum of £5,000.
We offer a full property management service, not just collecting the rent but ensuring your buildings are run at the optimum with a good relationship between landlord and tenant.
We welcome enquiries from landlords and the opportunity to see if we can add value to your asset.
