The Process of Property Refurbishment
Refurbishment is a necessary part of property development, especially for buy-to-let portfolios and developers who own many buildings and properties. The practice is widespread throughout the UK, and is an environmentally friendly and sustainable way of developing something new.
When refurbishing a property, you must carefully consider the costs of maintenance and renovation. The best way to do this is to plan thoroughly, from securing the property (if you are starting with a new one) through to completion of the refurbishment project.
Creating a stringent budget and understanding how much money you will require from the beginning is crucial. You will need to factor in various different costs, including the following:
- Professional fees (such as those relating to architects, engineers and solicitors)
- Construction costs (including materials and labour)
- Renovation costs (this includes the removal of the old – including appliances – and the substitution of the new – for example, the kitchen and bathrooms)
