Renting Commercial Properties

 At Asquith Homes we provide quality properties and services that is shown through our numerous long-term tenants who have been in the same property for 10 years, we have had our tenants returning to our properties time and time again. We also have several commercial properties to rent alongside our properties, below is some information about renting shops and warehouses.

When renting a shop you should decide on a suitable location, this is important because you need to ensure that the location where your shop is going to be will bring in a high number of customers whilst also ensuring that it has good transport links around to allow employees and potential customers to be able to travel to your shop. It is also important when looking at renting a shop that you consider the size of the building, you should consider how many employees you are going to have in the building and any machinery you will need which will help you determine what size you are looking for, you may also consider the future of the business- for example if you predict that the business is going to grow will you need to relocate in order to expand ? It is additionally important that before renting commercial property you should research the rent in the area to be able to calculate the costs, as a less known area may be better to rent commercial property in rather than a city.

When also renting a warehouse you should firstly begin to think about is if it has enough space to be able to hold all of your stock you will therefore need to consider the square footage, how much space will you need to be able to stock all of your products and if you have any forklifts will they be able to operate? When renting a warehouse, you should also check that your stock is protected so it is important that you consider the weather conditions such as damp spaces or changes in heat that could affect your stock. Considering accessibility is also essential as you need to think about whether you will need a lorry as your warehouse should be able to accommodate for this whilst also having parking spaces
