The new UK government funded Property Advice Service has launched to support SMEs with commercial property related issues across all London boroughs until March 2025.
The free one-stop-shop service is providing in-person and online advice for small and medium sized enterprises, micro-businesses and solopreneurs who are struggling with issues such as re-negotiating leases, paying rent arrears, the new energy efficiency rating and business rate relief schemes.
For the next 18 months, ventures across Greater London with a turnover of under £44 million can register to participate in a range of webinars, advice sessions and workshops. The Property Advice Service also signposts business owners to the resources which are most relevant to them and their situation.
Delivered by London Business Partnership, international property consultants Gerald Eve and the University of Law, the service aims to enable SMEs to grow whilst occupying commercial offices and retail or other workspaces.
