We will help you find the right premises for your business.
Before we do this it is important that we fully understand your business needs by discussing with you the current situation and your vision for the future of the business. Only once a detailed analysis of your requirements is complete will we commence the next phase. We locate, view and assess suitable properties for you.
If needed we do this on a confidential basis to maintain your anonymity and to provide you with a buffer from landlords agents. We will source properties that are available both on and off market to ensure the widest coverage.
We then give you an overview of the market and all available options that match the parameters of your search. We will provide you with a recommended shortlist of properties to view.
Next, we organise and accompany you on scheduled viewings and then advise you on the costs associated with each of the various properties.
We have a proven track record of finding the right property for our clients.

Once the right property is identified it is crucial that you secure the right terms for occupying the property. A major mistake that some tenants make is not to address all lease terms during the negotiation process. This means that these terms are essentially conceded in favour of the landlord when the lease itself is drafted and agreed. Our focus is to achieve the best possible combination of conditions, protection and costs for you, the occupier.
Once terms have been agreed, we ensure that these are reflected in the final lease by working alongside your solicitor.

Once you are in a lease you may want to change one or more lease clauses. Restructuring a commercial lease depends on the willingness of both landlord and tenant to amend their existing lease obligations. Tenants can use an impending option to break in their lease as leverage to get a landlord to the negotiating table. However discussions can be started when no such lever exists and can be instigated by either party at any time during the lease term. To ensure the best possible outcome, planning for a lease re-structure should typically commence 6-12 months before any notice needs to be served or 18 months before any event date.
Typically, though not exclusively, a restructure or re-gear will involve the occupier extending their lease term, or removing a break option within their existing lease, in exchange for incentives from the landlord.
Incentives could be a cash lump sum, rental reduction, rent free period or the removal of onerous provisions from the lease.

This is a term that refers to the repairing liability that a lease places on the owner, or occupier of that lease specifically to return the premises at the end of the lease in repair.
Occupiers can often be exposed to potentially crippling exit costs that will be vigorously pursued by the landlord upon expiry or earlier exit of the lease.
