Dilapidations
HJA has experience dealing with dilapidations on commercial and residential properties.
The team at Hamish James Associates have dealt with dilapidations claims ranging from small retail units to whole institutional Estates.
Individual Claims up to £40 million.
On a mixed-use estate, claims totaling £100 million for disrepair; for more information, go to Want of Repairs / Portfolio Inspections
Dilapidation practice applies not only at the end of the lease. Hence, we apply our knowledge and experience to other areas of Landlord and Tenant advice.
So, we have divided Dilapidation, Want of Repairs and related Landlord and Tenant into separate pages as follows:
3. Pre-Lease Advice & Schedule of Conditions
4. Building Energy Certificates and a New Lease on an Old Building
5. Pre-Lease Negotiations & Schedule of Conditions
6. Landlord & Tenant Repairing Covenants
7. Want of Repairs / Portfolio Inspections
8. Interim Schedule of Dilapidations
10. Head Lease / Service Charge & Mansion Blocks with Issues
To reach the areas you wish to see, click the heading to be taken to the relevant page.
However, for all types of instruction and in particular end-of-lease dilapidation, we recommend that we be instructed a year out from the termination of the lease.
This gives landlords leverage to negotiate a new lease with the existing tenant.
And for the tenant, it allows you to have more control over the dilapidation process.
