Schedule of conditions are usually appended to leases to limit the Tenant’s repairing and redecorating obligations. Schedules of condition are also appropriate prior to commencing construction works to record the condition of property and external areas so that any subsequent damage can be identified. For example, in connection with Party Wall matters or refurbishment or alteration works within a multi tenanted building to protect the common parts. Schedules of condition are more than just a collection of photographs and when prepared correctly should include detailed commentary on the condition of each element.
