An Industrial property is built to last 50-60 years. Perhaps longer.
However, the property itself will need replacements and renovations across this time to prevent the need for a complete rebuild.
As Bill Gates points out above - as human beings - we’re good at managing tasks with short term success in mind, but not necessarily the longer term.
Knowing what to look out for and how to maintain a site is the reason why we work with contractors so closely.
This helps us to avoid large unexpected bills and plan our CAPEX budgets with more precision.
At Frankie, we’re passionate about helping our customers think about the lifecycle of a building and making smart economic decisions in this.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll spotlight on what you can do to ensure that there are no more surprises in 2020.
