Buy?

If you buy the freehold, you buy the property outright.  If you need a commercial mortgage, you'll probably require a large deposit.  Nevertheless, if you can afford it, buying freehold property can be a good investment in a rising property market in which the property holds asset value for the company.

Rent?

Renting, though more affordable than buying, is nevertheless one of the largest financial commitments you may make, so take time to work out exactly what you need from the premises.

Consider:

  • Location
  • Cost  
  • Room for expansion
  • Security
  • Working environment
  • Health and Safety regulations
  • Fire regulations

Change of use

Some buildings have restrictions on the type of business that can be run from them.  If your business differs from former use, you may need a change of use certificate.  Find out more at the planning portal.  Check with the council's planning team before you sign on the dotted line!

Efficiency: there's money in it

Did you know that there is money available to improve the efficiency of buildings?  Find out more at Finance & Support.
