Pre-tenancy inspection
Usually undertaken on behalf of the in-coming tenant prior to agreeing to rent or purchase premises.
It is imperative to check that all services are safe and up to current code We inspect the premises, preparing a comprehensive report that highlights dilapidations, any potential for asbestos, maintenance history on heating and cooling systems as well as certification of lifts, fire systems, electrics, gas and water to ensure they are up-to-date and comply with current requirements.
Included in the report are our recommendations relating to assuming liability for a full repairing lease, and what topics require further negotiations with the Landlord.
If there are dilapidations that require re-instatement or works needed to bring the premises up to date we can calculate a financial inducement from the landlord, recommending the tenants negotiate with the landlord for a 'rent free' period or rent reduction if they are prepared to take responsibility for the work needed. (There can be significant cost savings for tenants, we have negotiated rent free periods in excess of 12 months on 5 year leases)
We are keen to remind landlords that we are independent and provide our services impartially. Generally, the net result of our involvement is that premises are improved and sometimes upgraded with minimal landlord involvement, and cost.
Snagging
We inspect new build or refurbished premises on behalf of the purchaser or tenant prior to exchange and/or completion or occupation.
Checks include both external and internal areas, surface finishes, plumbing, electrics,and gas. Our detailed snagging lists, complete with digital photographs, ensure all problems are highlighted and rectified in readiness for occupation.
Snagging is generally a two stage process, we undertake an initial inspection, report our findings to both parties and then agree a date when we re-inspect to confirm all the snagging points have been rectified, and if necessary, a full clean has been undertaken.
