The value of an investment, whether a freehold or leasehold interest in a commercial property, is related to the income flow. In order to maximise the value of any investment it is necessary to ensure that several important matters are dealt with; Kirkby and Diamond Chartered Surveyors are here to help.

 

Initially, the finding of a suitable tenant can be completed through Kirkby & Diamond’s commercial agency department.

 

Once the tenant is found, the terms of the lease can be scrutinised to ensure that the leases maximises the investment value of the property and are drawn up for appropriate lengths and rent review patterns. 

 

The maintenance of the property in good order, is critical in keeping the value of the investment at a high level. This can be achieved by regular inspections by surveyors and regular dealings with the tenant to keep the tenant aware of their own repairing obligations.

 

Kirkby and Diamond, as property consultants, can address any issues in respect of enhancing the value of an investment by looking at development opportunities within the investment property or portfolio.

 

Obviously, the rental income stream is most important and rent reviews and lease renewals which can be carried out by our surveyors and valuers, are imperative to be kept at the correct level.

 

Ultimately, if a freeholder needs to realise the value of an investment, the commercial agency department has many clients waiting with available funds, to purchase investments either via open marketing or indeed off market, to enable a relatively quick and easy disposal.

 

For all investment opportunities whether it is to buy an investment, to sell an investment or to maintain the value of an investment, Kirkby and Diamond can help with “advice that pays”.
