The second article in a three part series on dilapidations emphasises the importance for surveyors to undertake comprehensive due diligence. Looks at requirements in the RICS "Dilapidations guidance note", the overriding professional duty of RICS members, basic due diligence, privity of contract checks, and tenancy solvency checks. Also provides a case study in which a surveyor failed to carry out appropriate due diligence on a lease-end dilapidations claim. (See also L140857).
