What due diligence should I carry out before buying?
Buyers should review leases, tenant covenant strength, service charge arrangements, planning permissions, title documents, environmental matters and building condition reports. Professional legal and surveying advice is strongly recommended before completing a purchase.
What additional costs should I budget for?
