What should I look for when doing due diligence?
Due diligence includes reviewing lease terms, tenant strength, service charges, planning permissions, condition reports, and title deeds. A commercial solicitor and surveyor are strongly recommended before purchase.
What are the risks of investing in commercial property?
Risks include void periods (no rental income), tenant default, maintenance liabilities, and changes in market conditions or planning regulations. Mitigating these requires proper property management and lease structuring.
Can overseas investors buy commercial property in the UK?
Yes, the UK market is open to international investors. However, you may need a UK-based legal representative and must comply with HMRC tax obligations, including stamp duty and possible capital gains tax on disposal.
