Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide Schedule of Condition services in Nottingham?
Yes, we prepare Schedules of Condition for commercial properties throughout Nottingham and the surrounding area. We can typically inspect and report within days of instruction.
When should a Schedule of Condition be prepared?
Ideally before you sign a new lease, as the schedule needs to be attached to the lease document. We can work to tight timescales when necessary.
What happens if I don't have a Schedule of Condition?
Without a schedule, you may be held liable for pre-existing defects when the lease ends. Landlords can claim for repairs to conditions that existed before your tenancy.
Can a Schedule of Condition be prepared after lease commencement?
While best practice is to prepare the schedule before signing, it can be prepared shortly after commencement. However, earlier is always better for evidential value.
How detailed should a Schedule of Condition be?
A good schedule should be comprehensive enough to record all observable defects and conditions. We use high-resolution photography and detailed written descriptions to ensure thorough documentation.
