Schedules of condition

Schedules of condition are an important snapshot of the condition of a property and are essential tools for effective and efficient management of property.

Schedules of condition can be used in many ways.

As part of a planned or re-active maintenance plan the schedule provides the base view of the condition of the property and then planned maintenance can be developed from this base.

Schedules of condition are essential when taking a new lease on older properties that already have some maintenance liability. The schedule can be used to limit dilapidations liability, obtained landlords undertaking to complete work or obtain/ increase rent free periods.

Schedules of condition should be used when agreeing party wall awards or agreeing works to or adjacent to adjoining properties.
