DILAPIDATIONS

Dilapidations negotiations are possibly one of the most important roles undertaken by a Building Surveyor.  Effectively, we ensure that a tenant has complied with their repairing obligations under the terms of the lease.

We are well placed to provide the following Dilapidations related products:

• Preparation of schedules for landlords and negotiation of financial settlements
• Preparation of interim / terminal claims for landlord
• Portfolio dilapidations management for landlords
• Assessment of dilapidations liability for landlord
• Monitoring compliance works for landlords
• General strategy advice / implementation / Section 18 (1) guidance
• Break clause advice and guidance on compliance works

A breach of non-financial obligations in a lease often leads to a dilapidations claim, which can be complex and technical, and the procedures and timescales are often crucial in successfully pursuing a claim.

As a landlord, you will be keen to preserve the value of your asset and be compensated for any loss incurred due to your tenant’s failure in complying with its lease obligations.  At Stat BC, we shoulder that responsibility in order to reach a satisfactory solution.  We bring clarity to complex matters, and our professional expertise is matched by a commercial and proactive mindset ensuring the matter is dealt with in the most effective and efficient way.
