A factory's advertised size can describe several different things. Learn which measurements to request before comparing premises.

A low PSF figure can be a poor comparison when the denominator, tenure or property specification differs. Here is a more useful approach.

A reliable relocation plan starts with dependencies and evidence, not a single moving date. Build a timeline that protects continuity.

An industrial address does not answer every question about permitted use. Check the title, planning position and proposed activity separately.

Tenure matters, but it should be assessed alongside the business plan and actual title. Ask these questions before choosing a factory.

A useful warehouse location is one your vehicles can reach reliably. Compare real delivery routes and gate access, not just distance to a highway.

Flood due diligence should cover the building, its access roads and the evidence behind assurances. A dry viewing day cannot establish flood safety.
Share your location, space and operating requirements so we can discuss suitable options.
