Life has never been running at such a break-neck speed as it is today. I’m surprised you’ve got time to read this. I’m surprised I’ve got time to *write* this. Internet, apps, latest news, ‘being the first’ culture, hashtags and instantaneous media are only encouraging us to move faster and enhance our productivity to a super-human level. So it’s only fitting that a solution to commuting, freelancing and start-up businesses would have peaked on the horizon. That solution is hot-desking. We offer hot-desk spaces to everybody who requires one, and with locations across the country and recently it’s become easy to transport your entire business with you wherever you go.

Nottingham Tram Extension Leaves Beeston’s Commercial Retailers in the Lurch.

Commercial Property, Exeid News, Nottingham, Property Purchase
You cannot argue that progression in Nottingham’s public transport isn’t a welcome extension. There will be two new tramlines expected to be operational by 2014 – one running to Clifton and the other to Chliwell, two areas that are deserving of such development. Could it be argued that the ends justify the means? Research shows that more than a few people are being trodden on, along the way. [caption id="attachment_702" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Nottingham Tram"][/caption] A Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) has been issued to retailers in Beeston, meaning they have to evacuate their buildings and relocate. A CPO is a legal function in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland that allows certain bodies, which need to obtain land or property - Nottingham City Council in this case - to…

Mary Portas Is A Woman On A Mission…

Celebrity News, Commercial Property, Property Purchase, Uncategorized
...To save our High Street Retailers. The acclaimed retail guru was appointed by the government to undertake a review of High Streets in Britain, in May – the report has recently been released and seems ever more poignant as the Festive Season fails to provide the capital ‘boost’ that is usually expected. What is Mary Portas planning to do about it? How has the industry responded, and what does this mean for the Commercial Property Sector? [caption id="attachment_680" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Mary Queen of Shops - Mary Portas"][/caption] Reports show that although footfall on the High Street has remained relatively unaffected, the cold, hard cash that Christmas Shoppers are parting with, this December, is the lowest it has been in years. With High Street Lingerie giants La Senza currently going under…

Interview with Richard Priestly MD of Exeid.com following the recent acquisition of St Nicholas Court a Commercial Office Property on Castle Gate Nottingham.

Commercial Property, Exeid News, Nottingham, Office space, Property Purchase, serviced office space
Six months on and we revisit Exeid.com and their latest office acquisition St Nicholas Court 25 to 27 Castle Gate, Nottingham. We talked with Managing Director Richard Priestley: So Richard, you acquired this building in the thick of what has been described as the most difficult trading conditions for 70 years in the commercial property sector. Was that a foolhardy or smart move and why? To be fair it was almost a bit of both. The property was first identified as a target by our CEO a few of years back. Basically, it was approximately 60% vacant but at that time the  requirement to pay “empty rates liability” had not kicked in so the price tag, whilst much higher than what was eventually paid, was almost justified. So why wasn’t…

Commercial property UK – a 3 year view.

20 Fletcher Gate News, Commercial Property, Landlords, Property Purchase, serviced office space
David Ajose CEO of Exeid, the rapidly expanding boutique commercial property consultancy commented on the recent changes in empty rates liability and the further impact of interest rates on the Commercial Property Market.  "We expect interest rates to firm up in Q3 this year adding more pressure on any highly geared property investments. This combined with empty  rates liability charges will mean that the commercial property market will be under pressure for the next two years at least. We think that the market will be no further on, in two years time than it is today. Then we believe that things will begin to improve slowly, towards the end of 2013 and into 2014". Although this may sound a little depressing  to some, David thinks that  anyone with a long term…
