Lease Consultancy Services
Rent Review & Lease Renewals
Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, we deal with all aspects of rent review and lease renewal. Our expert commercial surveyors have detailed working knowledge of relevant statute and case law, significant market experience and excellent negotiation skills, which together, obtain the best possible result for the client.
Our service includes;
- Property inspection & pre-negotiation report including recommended approach
- Service of notices / liaising with solicitors as necessary
- Carrying out all negotiations
- Preparing Heads of Terms / Rent Review Memorandum
- Liaising with solicitors through the legal process to successful completion of a new lease
- Recommending a negotiated settlement figure or alternatively, where agreement cannot be reached, pursuing the matter through the Arbitration / Independent Expert process / court process if it's a lease renewal
Lease Restructuring
We offer bespoke advice to clients to maximise value by restructuring existing lease agreements. When business needs change, leases can become a limiting factor. Re-gearing or restructuring your lease could unlock invaluable cost savings or address evolving occupational needs. Removing break options unlikely to be exercised to extract financial value for tenants or negotiating reversionary leases that secure properties and allow further investment are just two ways we can ensure both occupiers and landlords benefit.
Strategic Property Advice
Aligning property with business strategy
Whether it's growth, cost reduction, or operational efficiency you are looking for, our property experts will undertake an in-depth review of your portfolio to best advise you on your short, medium or long term goals.
Portfolio Optimisation & Cost Management
Our team will evaluate your property portfolio to identify potential for improvement which could deliver significant savings and increase profitability;
- Optimising space utilisation - opportunities for subletting / close and merge
- Reducing property related costs - negotiating better lease terms, lowering business rates, reconciling service charge costs with actual lease obligations
- Identifying properties that can be sold or repurposed
- Identifying energy efficiency improvements
Risk Mitigation
We will work with you to develop a comprehensive property strategy which will include identifying and addressing potential risks related to property, such as lease expiration, market fluctuations, or regulatory changes allowing you to respond more effectively to changing market conditions and business needs.
Acquisition & DISPOSAL Services
Site Finding
FATE Property work with business owners, investors and occupiers looking to move, expand or relocate by helping them find their next commercial premises. The team has extensive experience in acquiring a full range of accommodation on behalf of clients to meet space, budget and location requirements.
Process stages:
* Inspecting your current premises to gain a clear understanding of your requirements;
* Searching the market to establish what properties are available that match your brief;
* Arranging and accompanying you on all inspections of potential properties;
* Negotiating and agreeing suitable terms to purchase or lease the chosen property;
* Instructing lawyers to complete the sale / lease;
* Proving advice on co-ordination of relocation and fit out if required
Property Disposal
We can also provide valuation and disposal advice on any existing premises should these be surplus to requirements;
* Advertising property to sell / let
* Negotiating lease surrenders with landlords
* Negotiating sublease terms with subtenants
Schedules of Condition
We prepare schedules of condition (SOC) that provide an accurate and factual record of condition for commercial and residential property. The service helps to ensure that legal or contractual obligations in relation to building maintenance, adjustments and tenancy clauses are met to minimise the risk of costly claims from the opposing party.
PHARMACY SERVICES
Pharmacies which are co-located with GP medical practices or that are located nearby, have historically been valued by methods which are not applicable to other types of property. Landlords base rents on a rate per number of patients that are registered within the practice. This often leads to much higher rents being paid than traditional retail or commercial properties in the locality.
A rent review based on increases in the Retail Prices Index will have over inflated your rent over the lease term meaning you are not paying Market Rent. FATE Property has a team with a wealth of experience negotiating lease regears to reduce rent and negotiate rent reviews where the mechanism is based on Market Rent or turnover / profit. Call us today to see how we can help.
Landlord Services
The challenges facing landlords of commercial property are attracting and retaining tenants, ensuring the property is compliant with all legislation from EPC's to Health & Safety, delivery of service at the property that exceeds the tenants expectations, ensuring prompt payment of all charges so the Landlord can discharge their own liabilities and maximise the return on their investment. Our property experts at FATE Property are here to help with these challenges and ensure value is added to your portfolio through effective property management. Our services include;
- Regular inspections
- Planned property maintenance
- Rent collection and client accounting
- Service charge budgeting and collection
- Tenant management including compliance
Damp & Mould Surveys
Damp & Mould Reports
Mould can be a serious health hazard and cause significant damage to your property. Private and social landlords must adhere to a number of regulations and a lack of compliance can place a landlord at risk of prosecution or financial penalties. With the introduction of Awaab's Law, taking a proactive approach to reduce the risk of damp and mould in your property portfolio is now essential.
Our in-house Property Care Association (PCA) Qualified Damp & Mould Technician can help you identify any potential issues and take steps to address them. We'll provide you with a comprehensive report that will confirm any presence of damp and mould, it's cause and specify any remedial works that are needed to rectify the issues.
OTHER Services
General Landlord & Tenant Advice
Landlords and tenants have specific responsibilities and rights outlined in their tenancy agreement and by law - this can often be confusing for a non-professional. The team here at FATE Property can help you understand specific obligations and advise on the suitable next steps.
Property Inspections
Our property inspection service is designed to identify any defects or issues in your property. Addressing issues early can prevent them from escalating into major problems, potentially reducing the value and lettability / saleability of your property. We provide you with a detailed report outlining any issues and recommendations on how to rectify them.
- At the start or end of a tenancy: To document the property's condition before and after occupancy.
- During the buying or selling process: To assess the property's condition and any potential liabilities.
- Regularly throughout the property's lifespan: To identify potential problems and prevent costly repairs.
Business Rates Appeals
FATE Property surveyors have in-depth experience in appealing and reducing rateable values to help clients save on business rates payable. Business rates are a significant overhead for any business, so it makes good sense to minimise liability. The team will;
- Undertake a thorough audit of your business rates bills to ensure that you are being correctly charged
- Review and where available, make applications to ensure the appropriate Covid discounts have been claimed
- Identify if you have grounds to challenge Rateable Values and where appropriate, appeal for a reduction
- If you have an empty or part-vacant property, we can navigate your business rates to achieve savings
