When we first moved to Calderdale – around the same time that we launched our H is for Home online shop – we were very keen on buying a commercial property; a shop with living accommodation above. I vividly remember us viewing a shop in the centre of Hebden Bridge when we lived there… we left it a day to discuss the pros and cons of buying it and living there… we decided to ring the estate agent and put in an offer… someone had already beaten us to it… how different life would be now if we’d moved in there – we’ll never know!

The value and asking price of a particular commercial property can vary widely – and not just because of its size, location or condition. Much is dependent on whether it’s freehold or leasehold, for what type of use it has permission, if it has sitting tenants, and it can make a difference if a relief/discount on business rates is available.
