Instruction

Dilapidations claim on behalf of a landlord

Location

Farringdon

Our role

Appointed by the Freeholder GMS Estates Ltd, their tenant ‘Greenhill Rents’ was looking to sublet the space.

Therefore our surveyors were instructed to prepare an interim schedule of dilapidations for exterior repairs to be undertaken as part of agreement, including works to be undertaken above London Transport lines.

At present we are in discussions with the tenant’s consultants on progressing external repairs and redecorations in accordance with lease requirements.

We read to lease to understand the provisions which involves a detailed examination of the lease, sub leases and any other associated documents such as the licence to alter. The contractual obligations must be understood before appraising any dilapidations claim.
