Whether you are intending to buy, sell, let or rent a commercial property, our team has the ability and experience to act for you.
We can guide you through your transaction, draw up and explain documents, advise you on potential risks and pitfalls and suggest alternative solutions to problems.
Leasehold Properties
In relation to leasehold properties, we obtain all necessary consents to the transaction and can advise on restrictions as to further use or development.
Heads of Terms
As a first step to a proposed deal, we would recommend that heads of terms are drawn up. These will be legally non-binding except perhaps for specific terms such as confidentiality. Heads of terms are usually drawn up by the property agents acting on behalf of the seller and purchaser or landlord and tenant and should always be reviewed by lawyers.
Schedule of Condition
A tenant being granted a lease should always consider having a schedule of condition prepared to record the condition of the property at that time.
A tenant should also be aware that in addition to the payments to be made to the landlord, it will also have an obligation to pay around 40% of the market rent in local tax to the local authority.
We liaise with other property professionals such as chartered surveyors, architects and accountants and are dedicated to giving our clients a comprehensive service which provides effective advice and peace of mind.
We are always happy to discuss individual requirements and will work closely with you and the other parties involved in the transaction to ensure the matter is handled smoothly and efficiently. We will always aim to offer cost effective advice on the legal issues but also on the practical and commercial matters which arise with a view to completing your transaction as swiftly and painlessly as possible.
