Negotiating for landlords and tenants

Whether you’re a landlord or a tenant, you need to know where you stand when it comes to dilapidations liabilities both during and at the end of the lease term.

And if you’re in negotiations then the advice of a knowledgeable expert can help you resolve issues fast.

As building surveyors we have the specialist knowledge and the finely honed negotiating skills to help. We have an excellent understanding of the complex relationship between landlord and tenant that gives us the ability to act for either party. We’re active members of the RICS dilapidations forum and we’re well versed in ever-changing laws that affect landlords and tenants. We’ve utilised all that knowledge when we’ve worked with leading solicitors and barristers in a range of high-profile cases.

When we’re working with landlords we always bear in mind the commercial objectives in the long term and the current state of the property market. That commercial awareness also guides our dealings with other professionals.

Whether you want a strategy formulated to prepare and issue an interim dilapidations claim against a tenant, or defend a terminal claim against an overzealous landlord, Propitas are well placed to advise on all dilapidations matters whether it be during or at the end of a lease term.
