Attention all Estate Agents.

Shalamar Shops are very interested in the possibility of taking on vacant High Street properties in the gap that exists between one tenant leaving and another taking up possession.

We appreciate that this may not be to the taste of all property owners, but then we are willing to take on payment of the rates, thereby saving your property owners a small fortune in some cases.

Other benefits that we can happily add are that:

• we would be willing to take on the right properties at very short notice,
• we would be willing to pay for the general clearance normally required after a tenant leaves (up to a reasonable level) and,
• we would be able to vacate the property with only one weeks notice necessary.

The reason we can do this is because we have a considerable list of small business contacts in the arts, crafts, antique and collector fields who are very keen to be able to sell their goods and products in High Street positions - even if only on a short term basis. Unfortunately for them, the cost of taking on a permanent position on the High Street is prohibitive. With Shalamar Shops taking on your vacant properties, we would be able to offer them daily positions on the High Street – just what they want!

We would take on wholly and completely the responsibility and liability for all dealings and payments on the properties with you and to you.

To summarise - we can guarantee that your property owners will have their rates paid and that the property can be taken on quickly and then released quickly back to them. We can also guarantee that their property will be cared for and looked after (if not improved upon - depending on how the property was at the time we took it on). We can further guarantee that the property will be used to sell quality goods by respected and self made business people. Standards will be maintained and we have no doubt that public perception of the property will be very positive.

We look forward to hearing from you either now or in the future, should you have any commercial property owners who would consider such an arrangement.

Shalamar Shops - Putting you on the High Street!
