Therefore, you want to be sure of the commercial property you wish to take on.\u00a0To do this, you may require the help of a qualified building surveyor to carry out a commercial property survey of the premises. This article will explain why you may choose to get a survey of your commercial premises in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Commercial Lease<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A commercial lease is where a property owner allows a business to occupy their property for a specific lease term.\u00a0The landlord will let particular business activities take place on the premises.

If you proceed with the commercial lease, you can ask your landlord to include the latter in the lease agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n    <div class=\"my-7 lg:my-10 border-y-2 border-gray-100 py-7 lg:py-10 flex flex-col sm:flex-row items-start gap-10\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"w-52 mx-auto my-0! rounded\" src=\"https:\/\/img.legalvision.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/05\/04050959\/LegalVision-Landlords-Cheatsheet-for-UK-Leasing-Terms.jpg\" alt=\"Front page of publication\"\n                 loading=\"lazy\" width=\"208\" height=\"298\">\n                <section>\n            <div class=\"text-2xl font-bold\">Cheatsheet for UK Leasing Terms<\/div>\n            <div class=\"body-text\">\n                <p>This cheatsheet includes practical tips to understand key clauses and avoid disputes in leasing agreements.<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            \n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/go.legalvision.co.uk\/cheatsheet-uk-leasing-terms.html\" class=\" block px-5 py-3.5 max-w-fit bg-orange button__hover transition rounded text-white font-bold text-lg no-underline uppercase leading-tight text-center\" target=\"\" rel=\"\">Download Now<\/a>        <\/section>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding the actual condition and state of repair of the commercial property before you sign a commercial lease means you know what you will commit to.\u00a0This is important in terms of <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/commercial-lease-property\/commercial-lease-responsibilities-as-tenant\/\">obligations<\/a> in the commercial lease agreement.\u00a0These are specifically the lease clauses that concern the maintenance and <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/commercial-lease-property\/repair-obligations-commercial-tenants\/\">repairs of the property<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These often obligate you as a tenant to leave your commercial premises in the same or even better repair when you leave it at the end of your lease term.\u00a0As a commercial tenant, you want to avoid unexpected repair costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, you can ask a building surveyor to assess the commercial property&#8217;s condition so that you can determine its viability for the business activities and plans you have for it.\u00a0You may, for example, want to use the property as a:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>shop;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>restaurant;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>office; or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>place for leisure activities.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Local Searches Within a Survey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you decide to lease a property as your commercial premises, you may wish to do some fact-finding on it first.\u00a0This can involve local searches, which a building surveyor can do for you.\u00a0These give you information about past issues with a property and its surrounding areas, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>road works;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>new developments;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>risk of floods; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>liabilities you may have to pay for the upkeep of local churches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rent Review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your lease has a rent review clause, your landlord must periodically review the rent amount you pay them.\u00a0The clause will detail when they will do this and their rent review method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div  class=\"box box--icon box--info\">\n    <p>When your rent review is due, you may ask a surveyor to survey your commercial premises. This will give you an idea of the current rental value of your business property. Accordingly, if you believe your commercial landlord suggests an unfair rental price, you have evidence to back this up during any rent review appeal process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are a commercial tenant or a business owner about to sign a lease agreement, consider using a chartered surveyor to survey the property. A commercial lease is a significant commitment for your business, so you want to know complete details about the property it concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various reasons you may wish to get a survey. You may want to assess the condition of the property to understand the extent of some of the lease obligations you commit to. You can also ensure that any rent change following a rent review fairly reflects the property&#8217;s value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need help understanding the benefits of a pre-lease survey for your UK commercial lease, LegalVision\u2019s experienced <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/leasing-lawyers-lp\/\">leasing lawyers<\/a> can assist as part of our LegalVision membership.\u00a0For a low monthly fee, you will have unlimited access to lawyers to answer your questions and draft and review your documents.\u00a0Call us today on <a href=\"tel:+448081968584\" class=\"AVANSERnumber dynamic-number\">0808 196 8584<\/a> or visit our <a href=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/membership\">membership page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose m-feedback-prompt\">\n    <!-- Thumbs up\/down bar -->\n    <div class=\"m-feedback-prompt__main\">\n        <div class=\"m-feedback-prompt__title\">Was this article helpful?<\/div>\n        <div>\n            <!--span class=\"m-feedback-prompt__button--text\">Thanks!<\/span-->\n            <button type=\"button\" class=\"m-feedback-prompt__button m-feedback-prompt__button--yes\"\n                    data-analytics-link=\"feedback-prompt:yes\" aria-label=\"Agree\">\n                <i class=\"fa-regular fa-thumbs-up fa-3x\"><\/i>\n            <\/button>\n            <button type=\"button\" class=\"m-feedback-prompt__button m-feedback-prompt__button--no\"\n                    data-analytics-link=\"feedback-prompt:no\" aria-label=\"Disagree\">\n                <i class=\"fa-regular fa-thumbs-down fa-3x\"><\/i>\n            <\/button>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <!-- Feedback form -->\n    <div class=\"m-feedback-prompt__form\">\n        <div class=\"m-feedback-prompt__form--thanks \">\n            <div>Thanks!<\/div>\n            <p>\n                We appreciate your feedback \u2013 your submission has been successfully received.            <\/p>\n        <\/div>\n        <form id=\"contact-form\" class=\"m-feedback-prompt__form--form\" action=\"\" method=\"post\">\n            <input type=\"hidden\" id=\"authenticity_token\" name=\"authenticity_token\" value=\"9eb4f72322\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wp_http_referer\" value=\"\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185827\" \/>            <input value=\"https:\/\/legalvision.co.uk\/commercial-lease-property\/survey-of-commercial-premises\/\" type=\"hidden\" name=\"currenturl\"\n                   id=\"currenturl\">\n            <input value=\"Why Should a Commercial Tenant Obtain a Survey of Commercial Premises?\" type=\"hidden\" name=\"currenttitle\"\n                   id=\"currenttitle\">\n            <label>\n                <!-- display on thumbs-up -->\n                <span class=\"m-feedback-prompt__feedback m-feedback-prompt__feedback--yes\">\n                    Can you tell us <span class=\"font-semibold\">why<\/span> you found it helpful?\n                <\/span>\n\n                <!-- display on thumbs-down -->\n                <span class=\"m-feedback-prompt__feedback m-feedback-prompt__feedback--no text-lg\">\n                    How can we better improve this article?\n                <\/span>\n                <textarea name=\"feedbackmessage\" id=\"feedbackmessage\" required><\/textarea>\n            <\/label>\n\n            <div class=\"m-feedback-prompt__form--error\" id=\"form-submit-error\"><\/div>\n            <button id=\"submit-contact-form-button\" type=\"submit\" name=\"commit\" class=\"m-feedback-prompt__form--submit\"\n                    data-analytics-link=\"feedback-prompt:submit\">\n                Submit            <\/button>\n        <\/form>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a commercial tenant, when you commit to a commercial lease, you make a financial commitment, often for several years, depending on the lease end term date in the lease agreement.
