Why industrial property needs an engineer

An industrial building is not judged the way a house is. What matters is whether it can do the job. Ceiling height, floor loading, column spacing, power supply, water, effluent handling, whether a truck can actually turn inside the gate.

A shed with low clearance is worth much less than the same area with height, because half the industries that might want it cannot use it. That is an engineering judgement, and it is why Chartered Engineer and Government Approved Valuer work matters here.

How we value it

Almost always land plus building. We value the land at the going industrial rate for that area, then add the depreciated cost of the structures.

Depreciation is where most reports go wrong. A twenty year old shed is not worth what it cost to build. We work out its remaining useful life honestly, based on how it was built and how it has been maintained, and show that calculation openly.

Machinery is valued separately. See that page.

Leasehold industrial land

A lot of industrial land is held on lease from a development authority rather than owned outright. This affects value and it affects what you can do with it.

What matters is how many years are left, whether it can be transferred and on what conditions, and what charges fall due on a transfer. We check the lease and state its effect plainly, because a report that treats leasehold land as freehold is simply wrong.

What we need

Questions people ask us

The unit is closed. Does that reduce the value?

Closure itself does not, but neglect does. Machinery deteriorates when it sits idle and buildings suffer without maintenance. We record actual condition rather than assuming.

Can you value land and machinery together?

Yes, and usually we should. The report shows them separately so a lender or buyer can see the split.

My lease has only fifteen years left.

That reduces value compared with a fresh lease or freehold, and the report has to reflect it. Whether renewal is likely and on what terms also matters, and we look at that.

We extended the shed without approval.

We record what physically exists and note what was and was not approved. Lenders expect this to be stated openly.
