Schedules of conditionA schedule of condition is carried out in order to record the condition of a property so that any existing disrepair can be identified and evidenced. This may be required in various situations, such as: 

  • an attachment to a lease, in order to limit a tenant’s dilapidations liability.
  • in advance of building works to record the original condition.
  • an annexation to a Party Wall Award.
