This may be too hot to handle
Carter, John
This may be too hot to handle - 2007 - Estates Gazette (0744) 3 November 2007, 178(1) .
Identifies significant changes in the sixth edition of the RICS Code of measuring practice. Notes that net internal space will now be reduced by heating units which protrude into a room by more than 25cm. This means rent levels agreed at previous rent reviews may now be inappropriate. Argues that the change is logical in the light of case law such as Kilmartin v Safeway (L133093). Calculates that there are potentially significant changes in terms of capital value. Considers further implications of the code and whether the Valuation Office Agency's code may be modified to follow RICS' example.
