GUIDE TO... Anyone who regularly reads the Yorkshire Business Insider will know that our coverage of the commercial property scene in the region is second to none. Not only do we cover all the major property deals, transactions and developments but we feature comment and analysis on property issues across the region.

This knowledge and market understanding has fed into the following single-page features which we think will help you understand crucial elements of estate management and building usage. What we have tried to do is to provide you with information that any property occupier might need in order to make decisions about how they use the space they occupy and what legislation and regulation challenges they face.

INTRODUCTION

Some companies have people in specific roles to deal with many of these issues but very often it’s left to the person at the top of the organisation – and they’ve got enough on their plates just running the business. So these pieces will, we hope, make life a little easier. The articles cover subjects as diverse as energy performance certificates, health & safety considerations, as well as some facts on some new regulations that we think you should be aware of, together with a useful glossary of property terminology.

HEALTH & SAFETY

Health and safety – the reality OK, it might be the subject of scorn and ridicule but, like it or not, health and safety is a fact of life and occupiers of commercial property have responsibilities that are required by law. Here are some the key facts to keep in mind – ignore them at your peril!

©shutterstock.com

Health and safety responsibilities should be written into a lease so check on the detail of this carefully. Although much of this is just common sense but we thought it would be useful to set out some of the good practice, recommended by the Health & Safety Executive, that should be implemented.

Health and safety policy If you have five or more employees, you must have a written policy. This should describe how you manage health and safety in your business and should state clearly who does what, when and how. The policy should be known and followed by all staff and be reviewed regularly. Assessing the risks Risk assessments help you identify and control the risk of harm in your workplace. The law does not require businesses to remove all risks, but to protect people by putting in place measures to control them.

Consulting with staff Your employees need to know and understand on health and safety and should be consulted too. This needn’t be complicated or time-consuming and will inform you whether staff have any training requirements to control risks in the workplace. Training and information All staff should know how to work safely and without risks to their health, and this should include information on fire procedures. If relevant, training of staff should be considered and training records kept. Again, the bottom line is that everyone working for you should know what they are expected to do. Workplace facilities Your workplace must have adequate ‘welfare’ facilities, such as toilets, drinking water, as well as rest and eating areas. You must also ensure

that: the ventilation system is working properly; a reasonable working temperature is maintained; adequate lighting is supplied; the workplace is clean; and workspaces and workstations are appropriate. First aid You must have first-aid arrangements in your workplace and these will depend on the particular circumstances in the workplace. You might decide that you need a first-aider. Get insurance for your business If your business has employees it makes sense to take out employers' liability insurance as this will enable you to meet the cost of any compensation for your employees’ injuries or illness. For further information, go to the Health & Safety Executive’s website www.hse.gov.uk

REGULATIONS

New regulations for business rates and property relief The Government has made a number of legislative changes to the way local authorities can deal with business rates and also to the relief that is available to businesses. We summarise these latest changes. a new temporary measure for unoccupied new builds from October 2013 which will be exempt from unoccupied property rates for up to 18 months. This includes the initial three- or six-month exemption so properties may, if unoccupied, be exempt from non-domestic rates for up to an extra 15 or 12 months.

Empty Property Rate relief This relief helps owners and occupiers of empty properties to meet the cost of their Empty Property Rates. Properties can claim 100 per cent relief for the first three months (or six months for industrial properties) of being empty, after which they were liable for full rates. The Government is also introducing

Revaluation The Government’s new Growth and Infrastructure Bill includes measures to postpone the next business rates revaluation in England from 2015 to 2017. Small Business Rate Relief scheme (SBRR) The SBRR is a relief scheme that

helps small businesses to meet the cost of their rates. It is primarily funded by those businesses not receiving benefit from the scheme through a supplement included in the National Multiplier (or Uniform Business Rate). The multiplier is used by councils to calculate business rates. Small business rate relief is available to ratepayers who occupy one main property and other additional properties providing those additional properties each have a rateable value of less than £2,599. Eligible ratepayers will continue to receive relief at 100 per cent on properties with a rateable value of not more than £6,000, with a tapered relief of between 100

per cent and 0 per cent on properties with rateable values between £6,001 and £12,000.

Business rates retention The business rates retention scheme became applicable from April 2013 and provides a direct link between business rates and what councils spend on local services. Local authorities will be able to keep half of any increases in business rates revenue to invest in local services.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY New legislation on energy efficiency means all landlords of commercial properties must ensure the property has an Energy Performance Certificate. Occupiers need to be aware of this change too.

In January 2013, the law pertaining to energy efficiency of commercial properties changed. Now, each and every commercial property, whether it is being sold or leased, must have a Commercial Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). Owners face a fine of up to £5,000 if they fail to produce a Commercial EPC and it is also now law that any advertisement for a commercial property must include a copy of the EPC certificate. A Commercial EPC shows the energy efficiency rating of the premises on a scale of A-G (with A being the most efficient), similar to those now

mandatory for all domestic property sales. EPCs will also include recommendations from a qualified energy assessor on how further energy efficiency measures can be implemented to the building. There are some exemptions to the law on EPCs. They are not required if: a lease on a building is only being renewed or extended; it is deemed a temporary building to be used for less than two years; the total floorspace is less than 50 sq m; the building is about to be demolished; or if it is a place of worship. A full list of exemptions can be found on the

Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) website. In line with domestic EPCs, a Commercial EPC is valid for ten years from the date of issue and can be reused as many times as necessary within that period. The only exception to this is when major structural changes have been made to the building, in which case a new EPC will need to be produced. A Commercial EPC must be issued by a qualified and accredited non-domestic energy assessor. Accreditation schemes are managed by the Department for Communities

Energy Performance Certificates for landlords and Local Government and a list of approved accreditation schemes can be accessed via www.communities.gov.uk/ planningandbuilding/theenvironment/ energyperformance/ For properties that are larger than 500 sq m and frequently used by the public, there is a requirement to have the EPC on display. This typically includes retail premises and those used as leisure facilities and as these types of usage are managed by tenants, the law states that it is the tenant that has responsibility for ensuring this is done.

GUIDE TO...

Refurbishments – the flexible option Refurbished premises typically cost around a third less than the £140 per sq. ft. of a new build, with an extra £10 per sq. ft. for period properties. They also offer other attractions such as customised space and – increasingly – a more pleasant working environment. Duncan Senior, of WSB Property Consultants, believes the refurbishment option offers businesses unique advantages. “The primary reason is value for money,” he says. “Smaller companies can take high quality offices on smaller floorplates which the big corporate buildings don’t offer.” Another growing trend is that companies increasingly want to be more pro-active in creating their own work space. Craig Burrow, a director for developers Bruntwood, believes re-fits can be inspirational, reflecting

a business’s brand and aspirations. “With refurbishing you can turn space round quicker than new build. Given the lack of new space many occupiers are considering refurbishment.” Landlords battling to keep tenants are cooking up a number of inducements including more flexible leaseterms and other attractions, believes Peter Knight, managing director of fit-out specialist Overbury. “Projects are often a combination of a fit-out for a tenant the landlord doesn’t want to lose and an upgrade of a building” he says. “There’s definitely been an increase in refurbishments, which now make up 80 per cent of the market. That wasn’t the case previously. And rather than financial incentives, companies are more interested in their environment.” Given the sharpening demand, the region is seeing a large number of

With a shortage of new Grade A offices in prime business locations, refurbished premises are an increasingly popular option for landlords and tenants. They can save companies time and money as well as securing an attractive location.

refurbishments, especially in Leeds. Highcross’ Toronto Square and Broad Gate are two examples of buildings that have been refurbished to Grade A specifications.

“You can also benefit from doing things like increasing energy efficiency” Guy Gilfillan, director and head of Yorkshire offices at Lambert Smith Hampton, says landlords have little option but to refurbish existing space. “There is little Grade A stock currently available in Leeds city centre and the Grade B space that is up for grabs is in need of hefty refurbishment. In Sheffield, of the 190,000 sq ft

transacted in 2012, only 24,000 sq. ft was for Grade A space in the centre, a decline of 79 per cent in comparison with 2011. This is not necessarily surprising as there have been no new office developments for the past five years, which is having a massive impact on supply and demand. Harrogate consultant Stuart Rivers urges firms to factor in capital allowances when making decisions about moving – especially to refurbished premises. He highlights the fact that the previous regime where allowances were spread over a number of years has now been replaced. Earlier this year, the Government announced a ten-fold increase in annual investment allowance from £25,000 to £250,000 with firms now entitled to full relief in a single year. But this arrangement lasts for two years only.

BUSINESS AND SCIENCE PARKS

GUIDE TO...

©shutterstock.com

The out-of-town specialist There is a view that the business park market is in decline. The result has been a painful period for those invested in the region’s business and science parks. But hope is on the horizon. It’s true that some of the region’s business and science parks lie empty and rental levels have been severely reduced. Add to this the fact that businesses with enough confidence to consider a move have gravitated towards Yorkshire’s city centres in recent years, rather than out-of-town business parks. Changes to working practices are also having an impact, but there is hope on the horizon. The region’s specialist parks that create business clusters, like the Advanced Manufacturing Park (AMP) in

Rotherham, are seeing considerable success while the more general schemes are seeing the available space slowly diminish. Business park developer Peel Holdings is behind the 1.5 million square feet Calder Park scheme in Wakefield and has a number of potential sites around the region. The popularity of out-of-town locations is improving and the company says building work will soon begin again. For many, the success of the specialist parks provides a valuable

lesson for future business park schemes across Yorkshire. By creating a cluster of complimentary businesses, providing opportunities to share skills and using the draw of major anchor tenants, these schemes have continued to buck the trend by securing a number of significant deals during the downturn. Guy Gilfillan, director and head of Yorkshire offices at Lambert Smith Hampton, argues that Yorkshire must work harder to replicate the success of the AMP and fears the region is

falling behind. “The key to a successful business or science park is a robust knowledge transfer network. You need a critical mass of businesses and the framework to enable businesses to share knowledge, expertise and innovation. It’s likely that the next generation of business parks will most likely come from medical technology in Leeds or renewables in the Humber. For example, the Rolls-Royce facility in Rotherham has provided a huge step-up in the energy sector which has ensured that business are queuing up to be on the same park. The same principles should be replicated in other business parks, with the lure of a major tenant attracting other businesses.

OWNERSHIP v TENANCY

To buy or not to buy? The RICS has written guidance for businesses who are considering the issue of whether it’s best to rent a commercial property or to purchase it. Here are the key points.

Ownership freedom Owners of commercial property generally have more freedom of action than tenants. Landlord approval for changes to the property are not required, neither will be faced with the inconvenience of negotiating

rent reviews, of renewing your lease or of arguing dilapidation claims if you move out. But remember, you will still need to maintain and insure the building and you will still be subject to the same external constraints in regard to, for instance, planning permission. The financial case A large business may consider that their capital is better funding the business rather than the property. But the decision hinges on what property prices (and rental levels) are expected to be. Rents can rise rapidly and, as a tenant, it is the owner, not you, who will benefit from any future increase in their capital value. But if you own the property, you will get the benefit of any capital appreciation and will own an asset at the end of the day. If the building increases in value, you might be

able to borrow against the increased value in the future. Commercial mortgages A commercial mortgage is the most common form of finance for the purchase of a building, particularly for smaller businesses. Such mortgages are obtainable from a variety of lenders, including the main high street banks, although the terms and the cost will vary depending on the options that you choose. For commercial mortgages, there may well be additional costs, on top of the interest payments and capital repayments you will have to make. A commercial mortgage lender may charge an up-front fee for setting up the loan and there is the cost of any required insurance.

The Starting Point Depending on the maturity of the business, leasing is generally a more flexible option than buying, at least in the case of a short lease. You can always move to a larger building without having to sell your original premises. However, buying a building which can be extended or adapted if you find you need more space in the future might make more sense. If you have plant or machinery, with high installation costs and want to write these costs off over many years, then buying may make more sense.

DEFINITIONS

Glossary of terms Useful explanations of useful terminology

Business rates The cost paid by business property occupiers for local services. Rates bills are issued from the local authority each year, usually between February and April. Dilapidations Where a property has fallen into

disrepair, a commercial occupier may be deemed liable. A schedule of dilapidations, which is a list of outstanding repair and maintenance items, may be drawn up if a landlord believes this to be the case. Estimated Rental Values (ERV) An estimate of the amount of rent that a property is likely to command in the open market at a given time. Fit-Out Costs These are costs which are usually incurred by a lessee prior to taking

occupation of a new or refurbished accommodation. Ground Lease This is usually a long lease, granted at a ground rent but subject to an initial premium payment. A ground lease can vary in length from 30 years up to 999 years. Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 The Act imposes statutory duties and a framework for the occupation of a building or land where a landlord and tenant relationship exists.

Lease expiry and renewal At the point that a lease expires, renegotiations can take place on the length of the term, break clauses and service charges, as well as the level of the rent. Rateable value The value of any non-domestic property. This is based on a professional assessment of the annual rent of a property if it was available to let on the open market on a fixed valuation date.

Break Clauses/Options A clause in a lease which gives either the landlord, tenant, or both, a right to terminate the lease before the contractual expiry date.

MITIGATING PROPERTY COSTS

Q&A How can my business save money in respect of our property related costs?

Q

Whether you own or lease your property four of the main areas where there may be potential to mitigate costs are as follows: Business Rates – almost every commercial property attracts business rates but do not assume the rates bill you receive is correct. Review the rating history of your property and consider this for accuracy, you may be over-paying. Carry out this review on a regular basis as changes in circumstances (eg to the property or locality) can entitle you to relief/reductions. Lease Advisory – whether you are a landlord or a tenant active portfolio management can be of benefit to both sides. In the current climate cash flow is all important. Whichever side of the fence you are on do not shy away from resolving rent reviews. For a tenant back-rent (often plus interest) is difficult to find if a review is concluded a long time after the event. Even if you accrue to cover the “what if our rent goes up”

scenario there is no substitute for actually resolving the event. Eliminating the uncertainty means that the accrued money can be released and used to develop your business. For landlords if an increase is justified the earlier this is agreed the earlier you will benefit. Similarly at lease renewal, uncertainty does not allow either party to move forward. Start discussions early. Re-gearing leases or agreeing variations to existing lease terms can also be mutually beneficial often enhancing the landlord’s investment value whilst releasing cash to the tenant. Property Repairs and Dilapidations – again active management is the key. Landlords - we have seen numerous household names disappear over the last few years. You should not assume you have a tenant for the life of the lease. Keep an eye on the condition of the property. Check your lease for your rights and if applicable look to have repairs carried out mid-term. Tenants – you should be wary of over inflated dilapidations claims. Do not take alleged costs at face value. Service and Insurance Charges –

if you are a tenant consider your obligations under your lease v the demands you are receiving. Are you being charged for the correct liabilities? Are the costs of the items you are paying towards reasonable? If you are a landlord check to ensure that you are reclaiming all that you are entitled to recover.

GROWTH AND INFRASTRUCTURE ACT

Q&A Q A

Matthew Sheppard, Turley Matthew Sheppard is a Director and Head of the Environmental Impact Assessment service at Turley

What projects will be eligible for this option?

Draft regulations published at the end of last month under the Growth and Infrastructure Act 2013 will formalise the power for developers of commercial projects to “opt in” to the nationally significant infrastructure project (NSIP) process. The proposed expansion of the NSIP regime covers office uses, research and development, industrial processes, storage and distribution, and conference, exhibition, sport, leisure and tourism guidance. It also includes the winning or working of minerals except peat, coal, oil or gas. An accompanying policy statement indicates that it would “not normally” cover schemes with less than 40,000 square metres of internal floorspace, 100 hectares of leisure, tourism and sports facilities, or 40,000 seats in the case of sports stadia if space allows, and over 150Ha for minerals developments.

Q

What is the NSIP regime and what types of projects does it currently cover?

NSIPs designated under the Planning Act 2008 are generally large-scale power, transport, water and waste developments. Applications are determined by Ministers following a recommendation by the National Infrastructure Directorate (NID), which is part of the Planning Inspectorate. Successful applications result in a Development Consent Order (DCO), which is a form of Statutory Instrument.

A

Q A

Is this process likely to be taken up by applicants

The NSIP system offers guaranteed timescales for certain elements, but not for the entire project. Early signals suggest that commercial developers may not be attracted to what can be a long and costly process with a different risk profile. Concerns over applications not being accepted by the Inspectorate, with an associated need to repeat consultation efforts, has led to industry adopting a cautious approach to consultation and in-depth legal involvement. The potential delay and cost of this risk contrasts unfavourably with increasingly speedy and pragmatic responses from Local Planning Authorities eager to deliver growth. It is for good reason that government does not anticipate this route being adopted by the majority of applicants, but the option to do so does suggest their willingness to support the delivery of sustainable economic development.

Q&A Q A

Why is the government doing this?

It sees the move as offering more certainty to the development industry by addressing concerns over delivery. It would impose statutory timetables for decisions to be made as well as combining associated consents, such as compulsory purchase orders, into a single process.

COMMERCIAL PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND ASSET MANAGEMENT

Q&A Q

Is occupational demand for commercial property better than 12 months ago?

Yes, although it’s stronger within the manufacturing, retail distribution and office (service) sectors. The growth in internet use will continue to impact on some high street and out of town retail demand.

A

Campbell Carruth, Business Space Director, Harworth Estates Campbell joined Harworth Estates from the Clugston Group in September 2011 to add value to its portfolio of business parks and promote new commercial development on its estate.

Q

How will Internet user growth impact on the industrial property market?

Occupiers such as Tesco, Asda, ASOS and obviously Amazon already have established distribution hubs within the UK. Continued growth in internet demand will drive further growth for larger and more technologically advanced facilities, clusters including a major postal distributor will evolve within established road and rail linked locations.

Growth in global internet B2B trading and the associated demand for stable superfast broadband connectivity will test the UK’s existing expansion programme. Business will become more internet dependant on cloud based trading and transferring large electronic files via the internet. Occupiers will prioritise Broadband connectivity within re-location requirements.

A

Q

A

Q

What effect will access to high speed broadband have on the manufacturing sectors?

What else does an occupier have to take into account when considering a relocation to new premises?

It depends on the scale of requirement, the occupier’s business philosophy and their core business drivers. Some of the key areas to be aware of:

A

• Make sure you do not let the property selection and legal commitment of your Business re-location delay physical occupation. Commit to property selection, space planning and negotiation early in the business plan process.

Harworth Estates AMP Technology Centre, Brunel Way, Waverley, Rotherham S60 5WG T 0114 254 1212 E [email protected] W www.harworthestates.co.uk

• Be aware of total occupational cost; rent, rates, insurance, service charge – the total annual expenditure on property costs is normally only a small proportion of overall re-location cost. • Be aware of the properties condition and your repairing and insuring obligations when committing to occupation.

Q

Is there a lack of new build supply in the northern England industrial market?

Yes – of the stock left around the north of England, only a small proportion of the stock built prior to 2008 is still available. However the weak debt finance markets are still impacting on underlying property market conditions and preventing new build speculative schemes coming forward. New build is possible in the pre-let, pre-sale market however again access to land and viable development finance is difficult and this will continue to suppress new stock levels coming through.

ASSESSING LEASEHOLD LIABILITIES

Q&A Q

Does a Standard FRI Lease incur unfair and unnecessary liability?

More often than not, yes. When signing an FRI lease a tenant is often taking on unnecessary liability because of the express and implied lease terms. A standard obligation to repair carries the implied obligation to ‘put’ in repair on lease commencement and most decorating covenants carry an obligation to fully decorate. The tenant may also encounter requirements to undertake improvements required under statute. We consider it essential to assess these liabilities to ensure outstanding liabilities are avoided.

A

should be identified and anything loose recorded. Issues may require immediate attention (e.g. leaking roofs, blocked drains, inoperable heating etc) whilst some issues may become problematic later (eg window decay, spalled concrete and rusting roof sheets). Compliance issues, such as asbestos, electrical testing and fire precautions, may be an additional cost not limited by a SOC. A SOC will record poor decoration; however an express lease covenant would not limit future redecoration unless cross referenced to the SOC. We therefore consider a Landlord (LL) should be asked to undertake immediate works and the wording of the lease carefully considered.

a dilapidations defence would include consideration of the following: • Age, character and location of the building on lease commencement; • Would the work be rendered valueless by a LL’s further works (e.g. redevelopment); • Would the work be required by an incoming tenant? • Would the freehold value of the building increase in line with the cost of works. If not a LL can only claim the diminution in value. Each case is unique and in every instance the lease terms, market conditions and side agreements should be considered well before the lease end. These points illustrate the importance of obtaining specialist advice from a Building Surveyor when taking a lease, and equally being professionally represented when exiting to avoid unreasonable costs.

Q&A Q A

Does a Schedule of Condition (SOC) limit these liabilities?

Only to some extent. Although a SOC is considered essential it is only as good as the level of detail it contains. It should be ensured the SOC includes full details on a property’s condition, not forgetting roofs and M&E services. Defects such as leaks and dampness

Q

Within a Dilapidations claim is a tenant liable for pre existing repair?

Yes, unless this was excluded from the lease, a tenant will be liable to put into repair, fully redecorate, comply with statute etc. However, it should not always be accepted that the LL can claim for everything and

A R-evolution in high-quality business space R-evolution: a background Less than a mile from junction 33 of the M1 in the heart of the Sheffield City Region, the Advanced Manufacturing Park (AMP) at Waverley is the UK’s premier advanced manufacturing technology park. Businesses on the park already provide world-class technology solutions for use in precision industries including aerospace, defence, construction, automotive, sport and others. It is already home to world-class organisation such as Boeing, Rolls Royce, Castings Technology International (CTi), Dormer Tools, Sandvik Coromant and TWI. Early phases of the development have been extremely successful, with all buildings on-site being full. This includes the Evolution development phase that focused on providing speculative build, and

attracted precision engineering companies such as IIDEA Ltd and X-Cel Superturn. This success has led Harworth Estates to develop an additional phase to attract a range of potential occupiers – R-evolution. Comprising up to 100,000 sq ft (Phase I) of high-quality business space, this development will meet increasing market demand in a region where the availability of equivalent quality stock is reducing.

What R-evolution offers Harworth Estates is currently securing planning consent to deliver the next phase of development at the Advanced Manufacturing Park. R-evolution @ The AMP will provide units to let ranging from 10,000 sq ft up to 30,000 sq ft. Pre-lets on larger units are available. The next phase will include construction of a new estate road

opposite the new Rolls Royce manufacturing facility, the creation of four serviced plots (totalling 7-acres) and the proposed construction of up to 100,000 sq ft. Harworth Estates will endeavour to reflect the high-quality environment already apparent at the AMP and build on recent successes and residential sales. It will continue the completion of the new AMRC extension and the Sheffield Universities proposed completion of the new training facility and develop the high level of interest in the proposed new units at R-evolution. Harworth Estates hope to secure lettings in 2014 on two proposed speculative buildings, which will provide new build industrial/ manufacturing accommodation ranging from 11,000 sq ft up to 30,000 sq ft.

Further development is also proposed on Plot 1 and Plot 2 in the New Year. The Advanced Manufacturing Park at junction 33 of the M1 has up to 75-acres of land available for manufacturing, research & design, office, education, hotel, conference and ancillary facilities.

The proposed New Retail Quarter, a transformed Moor and the new Markets, will give Sheffield a strong compact central shopping hub, to which high profile and innovative retail brands will be attracted. Much new development is taking place along Sheffield’s Gold Route where it crosses the main shopping spine.

A draft plan will see Shipley receive much-improved transport links, hi-tech facilities and 2,000 new homes. Land assessment has been carried out by Bradford Council to look at what areas of land may be developed. This has identified three sites in Dockfield Road and Dock Lane, which could yield about 130 homes, including the former Regent Mill.
