Our Client, an investor, is looking to buy the freehold interest of a commercial property in Coulsdon, Surrey. In contemplation of the purchase our Client has confirmed instructions for us to undertake a commercial building survey of the property and prepare a commercial building survey report.
The property comprises a detached building housing 3 commercial units to the ground floor, one of which is a restaurant with the other 2 being retail units. There is a residential flat on the first floor.
The purchase of the freehold is being progressed quickly and we have received confirmation to undertake the commercial building survey within a few days of the receipt of the instruction. We are please to have been able to accommodate our Clients requirements for a commercial building survey to be undertaken at short notice to ensure that the timescales on our Clients’ deal are achieved.
The commercial building survey will cover all the commercial and residential units within the property to include the internal and external areas of the building. We will inspect, review and comment upon the nature of the building and the condition of the elemental parts so that our Client has a good understanding of the potential defects and liabilities they will be acquiring. The commercial building survey report will also include commentary on statutory requirements that the our Client needs to be aware of should they acquire the freehold interest.
