Sell a commercial property portfolio.
If you own several commercial properties and are considering a sale, Rivermark can help you prepare the information and approach potential buyers across the UK.
How we help.
We discuss which properties you are considering selling, the information available and your preferred timing. We prepare a property summary, identify potential buyers and approach the parties you agree. We report the responses so you can decide what to pursue.
Who this is for.
- A landlord reviewing the sale of several shops, offices or other commercial properties.
- An owner considering a sale of the whole portfolio or selected buildings.
- A portfolio with a mixture of occupied, vacant or mixed-use properties.
What to consider.
What is being offered?
List each property, ownership and title, and whether you want to sell the portfolio together, in groups or individually. Your solicitor can check the titles, existing commitments and transaction structure.
Income and occupation
Bring together the leases, current rents, important dates and information about vacant space. Identify missing or inconsistent records so that a buyer can see which figures need confirmation.
Condition and property information
Gather plans, certificates, repairs and known works for each building. If a property includes flats or planning permission, share the leases or decision documents and ask the relevant advisers to check the implications.
Tell us the essentials.
Share what you know. We can discuss the rest.
- A list of properties and what you own.
- The parts occupied or vacant, rents and available lease information.
- Whether you are considering a whole-portfolio sale or individual sales.
- Your timing, asking terms if known and any existing agent.
We agree the work and fees in writing before starting work or contacting anyone about a property.
Common questions.
Must every property be sold together?
No. Tell us which properties you are considering and whether you have a preferred grouping. The options depend on the properties, your instructions and buyer interest.
Can the portfolio include mixed-use buildings?
Yes. Tell us what is included and whether any flats have been sold on long leases. Your solicitor should check the titles, leases and any rights affecting a sale.
Do you provide a formal valuation?
Rivermark can discuss available information and asking terms. A qualified valuer should advise on value.
