Inherent Objectivity ## Written Schedules of Condition Prepared for the purposes of **benchmarking** the pre existing condition of property relative to a forward leasehold interest, schedules of condition support a **limited repairing covenant obligations** through detailed documentation of condition using both written and photographic content. Necessitating appropriate repairing covenant formulation and agreement with the the applicable lease, schedules of condition aim to **absolve tenant yield up liability** for repair shortcomings at the determination of a leasehold interest. Acting on behalf of both landlords and tenants, our written schedules of condition are prepared in a **detailed and methodical manner**, specifically formulated to r**educe the risk of unscrupulous dilapidations claim formulation** and liability allegations being pursued and successfully enforced by claimant landlords.  Our **meticulously prepared** written schedules of condition incorporate extensive written commentary inclusive of elemental composition, **detailed descriptive condition** and quantification where appropriate. The written commentary is further supported via the inclusion of a comprehensive set of cross referenced images. The preparation of a written variant schedule of condition affords clients **additional benefit**, relative to photographic only schedules of condition, through omission of the otherwise necessity for **inherently subjective interpretation** of image content in the preparation and negotiation of a dilapidations claim.  Node Building Consultancy have accrued a wealth of experience and developed a **proven approach** to robust and affective written schedule of condition formulation, as garnered across a great many schedule of condition instructions. Our schedules of condition have served to **successfully protect the interests of numerous tenant clients** across all faculties of commercial property. ![Schedules of Condition - Lower Image](https://www.nodebuildingconsultancy.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Services/Schedules%20of%20Condition/Schedules%20of%20Condition%20-%20Lower%20Image.webp?width=615&height=930&name=Schedules%20of%20Condition%20-%20Lower%20Image.webp) Targeted Documentation ## Photographic Schedules of Condition In pursuance of cost and time saving, relative to written schedule of condition preparation, photographic schedules of condition are prepared for leasehold interest repairing covenant limitation also. Our **strategic approach** to photographic schedule of condition preparation similarly acts to protect tenant clients against **landlord claimant bias** dilapidations claim preparation and negotiation, where a repairing covenant yield up limitation by reference to a schedule of condition is applicable. Inclusive of written preamble, our photographic only schedules of condition typically include **in excess of four hundred detailed images** of all parts of the subject property, assisted via drone operated camera or access platform use. Although unable to mitigate the inherently subjective interpretation of images as required at the point of dilapidations claim preparation and through the course of subsequent negotiation, our focussed and **dilapidations expertise informed** means of photographic schedule of condition preparation places our clients in the best possible position to defend against unscrupulous claims for dilapidations. **Node Building Consultancy serves both landlords and tenants across the UK in preparing pre occupation written and photographic schedules of condition. Our projected future dilapidations claim liability focussed approach yields a strategic and meticulous methodology and documentation formulation, ensuring our clients are afforded every possible advantage during end of lease term events.** **With a market leading, second to one, success rate in mitigating alleged dilapidations liability claims, via the utilisation of applicable schedules of condition and otherwise, we would be delighted to assist you with the preparation of your schedule of condition needs.** ## Sector Experience A selection of client testimonials received relative to those written & photographic schedule of condition preparation services previously provided, by property faculty, relative to a range of project instructions across all client types.
