Property Owners
You have space sitting empty?
As a vacant property owner, you are paying for business rates, security costs, legal costs, and admin costs. And there is a risk of building deterioration, planning permission, and contractor delays.
An empty building could be an asset for you and the local community by turning it into a community hub through The Village.
By giving your space to The Village, you will get
-
40% saving on business rates.
As a CIC, we can offer a 40% mandatory saving on business rates.
-
No stress from delays in planning, leasing, contractors.
Your building will be occupied until you can start the work.
-
New relationships with the council and the local community.
Councils and local communities don’t like empty spaces. By providing the space to us to build a community hub, it will help you improve relations between your company, the council and the wider community.
-
Security & maintenance provision.
We will provide caretakers and will do improvements to the upkeep of the property.
We are looking for a space between 500 m² and 5,000 m².
The space needs to have an outdoor where we could put our garden. Of course, this is an ideal and we are open for suggestions.
We are looking for either a permanent home or meanwhile use of 5 years (minimum 3 years) so we have enough time to positively impact the local community.
