Notice Description

Marketing Proposals for parts of Swale House, Sittingbourne, Kent. ME10 3HT Swale Borough Council is seeking to appoint sole agents to market the available space on the first and ground floors of Swale House. Operational changes mean that the Council has a reduced space requirement in it main office building, with the first floor now fully vacated. Any occupation of the ground floor will likely be on a shared basis as it still provides essential client-facing/operational uses for the Council but it nonetheless provides opportunity for similar organisations to lease space. The net internal floor area (NIA) of the (total) ground and first floor of Swale House is approximately 28,536sqft (2,657sqm) representing c. 40% of the total floor plate of the building. We are seeking agents to market the property in the regular print and online media; to undertake inspections, negotiate and agree heads of terms and to manage transactions to completion through communication with potential twangs and legal representatives. In addition to setting out their fee structure, we are asking interested parties to set out their relevant experience; how they would draw up their brief and then subsequently market the space available. Submissions should be marked as Swale House Marketing Proposal and uploaded to the portal no later than 12:00noon on the 23rd November.
