Changes to your circumstances?
Change is inevitable over time when it comes to business space.
There can be changes to your internal environment and the way your property is utilised, or externally and in ways that impact negatively on your space. Internal and external circumstances can offer scope for obtaining short-term rates savings.
However, this usually involves us taking the most appropriate action at the right time.
Take action
For the 2017 Rating List it has never been more important for us to pick up on any internal or external change factors at an early stage of events, ideally before commencement.
Establishing the earliest ‘material date’ of the given circumstances can be crucial, especially as this is connected to the acknowledgement date by the Valuation Officer from formal CCA action. It can certainly affect the scope for maximising savings.
Is your property affected by any of the following issues?
- Under-utilised or vacant areas
- Refurbishment/extension works
- Neighbouring building works
- Major road schemes
