The building is let to multiple tenants under full repairing and insuring leases. Managed by CBRE, including full maintenance service, xburo was appointed to prepare a vendor technical due diligence pack assignable to the purchasers on completion of the acquisition. The role involved a full MEPH building survey including VT elements with a focus on engineering and the sustainable options that a future purchaser may take advantage of.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column our-expertise is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our Expertise<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer spacer-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This was a 20-year building where the MEP requirement and replacement listed numerous works. Challenges included working within the confines of a live building which housed blue chip tenants, each with their own dedicated fitout to suit their operational needs. There were also multiple basements and sub-terrain levels to access and assess.&nbsp;<br><br>xburo prepared the Mechanical and Electrical Public Health (MEPH) pack fairly and accurately to reflect the condition of the build which future purchasers could rely on.
