Schedule of Condition Surveys in Liverpool & the North West

A written and photographic schedule of condition prepared before a lease, works or a transaction, so responsibility for any later change is never in doubt.

Ideal for

Landlords, tenants, developers & neighbouring owners

Records

Written & photographic condition benchmark

Best before

A lease, works or a property transaction

What it is

Fix the facts before anything changes

ASG Consulting prepares schedule of condition reports before leases, construction works, party wall and neighbouring works, and property transactions across Liverpool, Merseyside and the North West. The schedule records a written and photographic benchmark of the property, so both parties hold clear evidence of its condition before anything changes.

It’s a small step taken early that saves a large argument later. Once condition is on record, responsibility for any change is far easier to establish.

Common questions

A schedule of condition is a written and photographic record of a property’s condition at a specific point in time. It is used as a benchmark that both parties can refer back to if condition is later questioned.

Before a lease begins, before construction works, before neighbouring works, or during a property transaction where a clear record of existing condition may help avoid later disputes.

It gives you a defensible benchmark of condition, which reduces disagreement about who is responsible for any later damage, repair or deterioration. Attached to a lease, it can also limit a dilapidations claim to genuine change rather than pre-existing wear.

Landlords, tenants, developers, contractors, neighbouring property owners, managing agents and commercial lease clients.

Usually, yes. A schedule of condition recorded before party wall or neighbouring works begin makes it far easier to establish whether damage was caused by the works, which protects both owners and keeps any claim factual.
