The ForeView Investor & Developer team have undertaken a number of site meetings this week reviewing the "completion" of several new and refurbished offices. 🏢 Have you recently achieved Practical Completion on a new or refurbished office scheme? Are you due to achieve PC shortly? 🏢 Is my property likely to be on the radar of the Council? 🏢 Is it possible to delay the commencement of business rates whilst I market the building? 🏢 What vacant rates cost should I budget for? ⏰The regulations relating to Completion Notices and the appeal system are complex. Time is also of the essence. Our expert team have been advising some of the biggest property developers and investors on this specialist subject since 2008. 💥Our specialist Investor & Developer team have developed an innovative and unique Completion Notice strategy that ensures market leading results for our client base. There is no one size fits all approach with our tactics bespoke to the asset class, size and geography.

Providing Cat A+ or Fully Fitted space to the market has become increasingly commonplace amongst property owners. Nothing new there but what are the implications on the rates costs whilst the 'vacant' space is being marketed? 📈 Is it likely to induce a higher rates cost whilst the space is being marketed? 💷 What is the risk factor and have you put a number against the additional rates cost? 🌍 Does location make a difference? 🕵️ Does the landscape change in 2026 when the compliance and duty to notify regime is launched? There IS a risk and it could cause a significantly INCREASED rates cost. Get in touch with the ForeView team to understand what this means for your building or portfolio. #businessrates #foreview #officespace #offices #emptyrates #investors #developers #commercialproperty #independentadvice

Fantastic day at the SHB charity golf day and great to see some of the ForeView team featuring in the highlights reel

The ForeView team summarise the key business rates takeaways from today’s Autumn Statement....   ✅ Retail, hospitality and leisure relief – For 2025-26, eligible retail, hospitality and leisure (RHL) properties in England will receive 40% relief (down from 75% in 2024/25) on their business rates liability. This is capped at £110k per business. ✅ Removal of charitable rates relief from private schools - Private schools in England will no longer be eligible for charitable rate relief. Private schools which are ‘wholly or mainly’ concerned with providing full time education to pupils with an Education, Health and Care Plan will remain eligible for relief. ✅ Multipliers – For 2025-26, the small business multiplier in England will be frozen at 49.9p (applies to RV’s below £51,000). The standard multiplier (RV £51,000+) will be uprated by the September 2024 CPI rate to 55.5p (currently 54.6p) ✅ Business rates: sectoral multipliers – The government intends to introduce permanently lower multiplier for Retail, Hospitality and Leisure (RHL) properties from 2026-27, paid for by a higher multiplier for properties with Rateable Values above £500,000. ✅ Business rates reform – A discussion paper has been published setting the direction of travel for transforming the business rates system and inviting industry to a dialogue about future reforms. ✅ Business rates: Disclosure Consultation Summary of Responses – The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) is publishing a response to the March 2023 Consultation on Disclosure, which sets out the next steps on increasing the transparency of business rates valuations by disclosing more information. 💡 For more detail and to hear the thoughts of the expert team at ForeView please see the full article on our website. #budget2024 #businessrates #foreview #emptyrates #2023revaluation #2026revaluation #investors #developers #tenant #retail #hospitality #leisure #compliance https://lnkd.in/eWGDxsbA
