Reshaping property portfolios – buying/ selling/ refurbishing

Moving premises can be extremely time-consuming and costly for businesses. For most companies, it’s a juggle to balance daily operations, as well as the logistics of finding, acquiring, and setting up new premises.

Considerations for businesses

• Rationalising your property requirements - When leaving a leased premises, companies must consider any liabilities they will need to address upon exit to bring the tenancy to a contractual end, including dilapidations and serving the break notice or s.27 notice.
• Improving your existing workplace - Organisations are rethinking the role of the office, how work should be done, and the space required to do it.
• Supporting your people - Changing offices often leads to significant organisational cultural and leadership shifts. Ensuring a smooth transition, minimising disruptions, and maintaining productivity is crucial.
• Finding new premises - Once the liabilities on the old premises have been considered, it’s all about the new. Whether it’s a new lease on office space, a manufacturing site, or a warehouse finding the right premises and ensuring the property is fit for purpose is critical.
