AMENITIES
COMMON QUESTIONS

1. How long can I rent this unit for? The landlord is ideally looking for a minimum rental term of 1 years.

2. Would the landlord be happy for a tenant to carry out a change of use for the property? The property is currently arranged for professional service sector business use only. An applicant wishing to use for retail or other purposes is welcome to make an application to the landlord for permission to apply for change of use. But this unit is not suitable for a hot food outlet or takeaway, as there is no space for an extractor fan to be fitted.

3. How much is the ratable value for this unit? The rateable value is £5,300 per annum; however, some exemptions apply. You can check whether your business would be able to apply for rates relief.

5. What other terms will be in the lease agreement? The lease terms will be agreed by a solicitor appointed by the tenant and one appointed by the landlord. The landlord has specified he would like a standard self-maintaining lease, with an annual rent review inline with CPI + 2.5%. This means the lease will require as with most commercial tenancies that the tenant is responsible for repairs to the property during their lease; and will mean the rent will increase in line with inflation annually.

6. Does the property have separate meters? Yes, the property is fitted with a smart meter for the electricity, and a water meter. There is no gas in the property.

7. How soon could I move into this property? The property is available immediately. The lease agreement will need to be prepared before a tenant can occupy the property, this process normally takes around 4 weeks.
