    How does a plywood ramp and weak wooden surround comply with building regulations?
    A urinal and sinks in an accessible toilet should have grab rails either side, and the loo is too close to the wall. Door handles are not accessibility standards. Distress cords are a requirement for accessible loos.
    Florescent lights are not up to lease standard for a public building and do not meet H&S standards in the corridors.
    In the kitchen why would you paint over broken tiles?
    What do the regulations say about fire alarm systems and smoke/heat detectors with false flammable dropped ceilings?
    What did the fire brigade have to say about the safety standards for the building, are bars allowed over the windows after the Manchester Woolworth fire?

    Really like the black ceilings, top of walls and pipes/radiators. Makes a feature of those nice old radiators. It's cool how you've modernised yet retained at the same time 👍

    That was a big job redoing the top courses of brick, probably undermined by gradual water ingress over many years. You have a great team within your family & friends, the funds to follow through, the foresight and entrepreneurial spirit to forge forward. Well done, young man, well done.

    On the outside ramp I would move the fencing out a little bit. Wheelchairs with a limited turning circle may struggle a little :)

    Looking good, clever retro renovation. Happy tenants stay longer, less expensive than being empty. Another quality product is being delivered to the marketplace.

    Got a good building there despite the cost to decorate it to a good standard. It's going to be rented to a nice charity you know it's going to be in good hands and that they're doing good work and you're making a nice profit from it. Everybody's a winner.

  • @haslegaardsvaenget
    @haslegaardsvaenget ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Hi--Have enjoyed looking at your updates on your properties and it is interesting seeing the difference between decorating in the UK style v. USA. Over here, we are using more warm neutrals and less of the blue/grey. Our lighting and bath fixtures are generally kind of an updated version of what might have been there originally (though we would never want the separate cold and hot faucets). It's nice that you're rehabbing older properties that have fallen into disrepair but be careful not to strip all of the charm out of them.

    Hey there I'm finally going to buy white paint to paint my rented room and then pay the painter.i have also known my dad has found me and recognises me now.i have had new windows put in my rented house.Azra has got her room wallpapered and now it looks much better.

  • @thomasfrancis5747

    Not convinced that the marine ply will last, you may need more sockets for IT equipment, etc, and that rear area still should be tarmaced for parking. Well done for sticking with it though and finding a tenant.

    It looks better Matt but i'm really not keen on the obsession with black & grey. A nice pastel blue colour for all of the walls with gloss white skirting boards & woodwork would look more cheerful.

    well on the way with the transformation. Great you have secured a tenant already. Does the double gates in the yard give access for say staff parking? Bonus if so as the street parking looks a limited.
    Goes to show that a well constructed building can have a long and useful life. If you're doing structural work, can't skimp on a Proper Job.

    You have been very lucky to rent that building quickly for a very good return. I thought that might be the most difficult part of the process, as it hasn't got car parking. But you have proved me wrong. You are also very lucky to have several relatives who are building tradesmen. I've never had relatives in the building trades so it has taken me a while to gather tradesmen that I trust.

  • @jamesgordon4754
    @jamesgordon4754 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very inspiring. I think the fact you've already got a Charity prepared to sign a 5 year lease is a good reflection on your vision. Hopefully they will take it for another 5 years at the end of the lease but 8 or 9% is a pretty good return. It might be worth getting it revalued once works are completed and ready to lease, wouldn't surprise me to see it around the £150 mark against your initial £90. Very impressive.

    Matt i know you’ve over spent for what it is but because you have now multiple decent income streams coming in. You sort of have an advantage because you have the finance (seem to anyway 😂)to keep pushing to finish so then you can get a tenant in. And as James Sinclair says commercial property is very tax efficient.
    I say all this even tho you got tons of money in car stock and other deals 🤣 but I’m happy to see another building restored reminds me of a youth centre that was by me.
    That MGU I beauty never gets old 😍
