property trusteeship

Property Trusteeship has been a specialism of ours for 100 years. Our trust corporation status enables us to act as sole trustee for a church or charity building. This is a real help when churches struggle to maintain sufficient trustees or wish to be relieved of the responsibility.  Custodian trusteeship is another option to avoid having to register the title for a property every time a trustee changes.  We also own over 60 church properties across the UK. We actively manage these and work closely with the occupying churches.  We are keen to find growing evangelical churches to use any empty properties we have.

property advice and management

We are able to use our extensive experience of property management and charity law to advise and negotiate on behalf of churches and Christian charities on buying, selling and leasing property.  We are also able to offer management services and advice on planning issues, building projects boundary disputes and land registration.

survey audit and valuations

Additional services include access audits to help meet the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act, condition survey to access works required to properties,  asbestos surveys under the Control of Asbestos At Work Regulations 2002 and insurance valuations.

You can call Giles Arnold, our Property Services Manager on 020 8502 8589.

hiring agreement pack

Most of our church buildings are being let to others on an informal basis. Having no written agreement can lead to misunderstanding or even major liabilities. This pack helps you to avoid some of the legal complications, security of tenure and insurance risks.
