Commercial Property - Dilapidations

Dilapidations is a cause of endless disputes between landlords and tenants. This is an area of commercial real estate which has undergone significant change over the past couple of years. This is mainly due to the introduction of the RICS Dilapidations Protocol in 2012.

In September 2016, the RICS released the seventh edition of its Dilapidations Guidance Note (the third edition in the past five years). The new note has a number of implications for both property owners and tenants.
