This is the extent of detail I go into when conducting my development appraisals, well before engaging professional teams. Currently, I am developing and evaluating proposals for a site in Surrey. As part of this, I am performing a swept path analysis to determine if I can fit adequate parking within the development layout for a block of eight 1-bedroom flats, with plans to provide four parking spaces at the front and four at the rear. Parking is just one of the many aspects I meticulously consider early in the development appraisal process. The amount of parking required, the layout, access, and safety can significantly impact the project's numbers and overall viability. #propertydevelopment #surrey #sempreproperty #Planning #parking #sweptpathanalysis

Do you agree?…When assessing a building in East Austin, buyers should focus on these top five factors during a site assessment: 1. Zoning and Permitted Uses: Verify the zoning of the property and ensure it aligns with the intended use. In Austin, zoning can vary significantly between neighborhoods, so understanding restrictions or permissible changes is critical. 2. Building Condition and Structural Integrity: Check the age and condition of the building, including roofing, plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, and foundation. Any necessary repairs or upgrades should be factored into the cost. 3. Parking and Accessibility: Evaluate the availability of parking and compliance with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) regulations. Consider whether the location is accessible for both employees and clients. 4. Utility Availability and Capacity: Confirm that the building has adequate utility connections, including water, electricity, and internet, to support the operations planned for the space. 5. Location and Surrounding Development: Assess the surrounding area for future growth, infrastructure development, and nearby amenities. Look into city plans or transportation projects that might impact the property’s value. #CommercialRealEstateAustin #AustinCRE #AustinProperty #EastAustinDevelopment #IndustrialSpaceAustin #AustinRetailSpace #OfficeSpaceAustin #FlexWarehouseAustin #BastropCRE #CedarCreekRealEstate #RoundRockCommercial #LeanderIndustrial #PflugervilleWarehouse #TexasCRE #RealEstateAustin

Post-construction cleaning is a critical step in any building project, ensuring a safe and pristine environment for occupants. At Bumble Bee Cleaning Services, we understand the importance of thorough debris removal and meticulous attention to detail. Seattle’s construction boom has made post-construction cleaning more relevant than ever, with numerous new buildings and renovations taking place across the city. This blog post will reveal the secrets to effective post-construction cleaning, helping you achieve a polished and professional finish for your newly completed space. Why Post-Construction Cleaning Matters in Seattle Protecting Health in New Spaces Post-construction cleaning in Seattle transcends mere aesthetics; it plays a vital role in safeguarding health, ensuring safety, and optimizing functionality of newly constructed or renovated spaces. In a city renowned for its rapid development and stringent construction standards, thorough post-construction cleaning lays the foundation for successful occupancy. https://lnkd.in/e8UkJ8Ri

This advisory by Real Estate Partner Gavin Vollans and Senior Associate Rhodri Preece discusses the Building Safety Act 2022, which introduced new requirements that sought to improve the overall safety, design, construction and management of high-rise buildings that have some element of residential use in the wake of the 2017 Grenfell Tower Tragedy. Broadly speaking, the requirements affect buildings that are either at least 18 metres or 7 storeys high and contain at least two residential units. Buildings that meet these criteria will be classed as “Higher-Risk Buildings” for purposes of the BSA. #UKRealEstate #RealEstateLaw #BuildingSafetyAct #ResidentialRealEstate

In Sydney, building defects in strata properties are increasingly prominent issue, influenced by factors such as rapid urban development and lapses in construction quality standards. One of the most common problems that has emerged is water penetration defects, often caused by faulty installation of windows, balcony doors, or roofing systems that remain unfixed for years until a hearing is heard. Several high-profile construction defect cases have brought more focus to these defects, highlighting the need for effective solutions. At SPMS, we are committed to helping our clients tackle these challenges, offering efficient, cost-effective resolutions to achieve the best results. #buildingdefect #strataprojectmanagement #buildingnsw #nswdefect

This week marks three years since the collapse of Champlain Towers South and the deaths of almost 100 occupants. If we are going to incentivise high rise strata schemes with #TODs we must 1) ensure they are built properly (kudos to David Chandler OAM for his work) and 2) institute regular GOVERNMENT inspections. We know unequivocally, that despite clear, statutory obligations to repair, many schemes do not do work, even basic maintenance like painting. Maybe they don't understand, maybe they don't care or maybe they genuinely cannot afford it, but a system that relies solely on lay people to manage complex high rise infrastructure will not work.  This is also the reason architects, planners, designers, councils and state government must think carefully and realistically when making infrastructure common property in strata and community schemes and shared facilities in stratum. #strata #infrastructure #housing #construction #surveying #condo #councils #architecture #planning https://lnkd.in/gH-yxS-e

#365DaysofSustainability, Day 128: "How much insulation do I need and what else can I do to make this building more efficient?" This is the question many teams ask as they plan renovations or new construction. PE-Services tapped Emerald Built Environments to build an energy model and answer those questions for its College Square project in Newark, Delaware! #EnergyModeling #AnswerQuestions #SustainabilityConsulting
