Commercial Property Law

Commercial property incorporates various types of property, from a pub or a shop to an industrial unit or bare land.

Stamp duty for a residential purchase that is not your own personal residence (i.e., investment properties) starts at £40,000. However, if you are buying “commercial property,” the rates start at £150,000. HMRC considers anything that is non-residential to be charged at the “commercial property” rates.

It often entails dealing with additional documents such as Rent Deposit Deed and Deeds of Guarantee. Moreover, purchasing a business is even more complex than a standard commercial purchase. Rest assured, we are here to guide you through every step and provide the advice you need to successfully complete your transaction.

• Buying a commercial building.
