Schedule of Condition

A Schedule of Condition provides a detailed record of a building’s current state prior to any planned works or changes. This ensures that pre-existing issues are documented, reducing the risk of disputes over subsequent damage.

Schedules can also be linked to a Party Wall Award, offering protection for both the building owner and adjoining owners before work begins. By recording the condition in advance, responsibilities are clearly defined and potential conflicts are minimised.

For tenants entering a new lease, a Schedule of Condition offers a clear benchmark against which future claims can be assessed. When agreed and referenced in the lease, it safeguards tenants against unfounded dilapidations claims.

Our schedules assess all internal and external parts of the property, providing a complete picture of the building’s condition. Each report includes detailed observations and supporting information to ensure clarity and transparency.

We aim to deliver clear, practical, and authoritative reports that clients can rely on. These assessments help inform decisions about maintenance, alterations, or future development.

With extensive experience producing Schedules of Condition across various property types in Yorkshire, we provide RICS-compliant documentation that is trusted by landlords, tenants, and professionals alike.
