Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Outline Brief
 With a budget of £200,000 explore options to
improve the environment in which our
volunteers work and visitors experience.
 Without bias toward staying or moving
following surprising mix of comments
 Major requirements voiced:
 Secure Parking for at least 4 vehicles
 Safe Area to work, train or visit
 Disabled Access for all
 Facilities with capacity for regional meetings
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Our Options
Refurbishment of current branch
Purchase of land and
commissioning of new, purpose built
office
Purchase of new premises
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Refurbishment of Existing
 Most affordable option
 Have already invested in new heating
and double glazing
 People know where we are
 The building itself is in good condition
 Facilities are as required in most areas
 It’s the 2nd Home for our Volunteers!
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Refurbishment of Existing cont.
 Does not address serious car parking issue
 Branch would need to close for refurb.
 Steepness of staircase not compliant
 Would leave significant cash in reserve –
uncertain future re claw-back by G.O.
 Building currently needs some TLC
 Many volunteers want to move
 Area is not good for attracting new NS’s
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Newly Built Building
 Many land searches done around current
location both existing buildings and land alike,
very cost effective
 Site between Hopwood Lane and King Cross
Lane looked very promising
 Bespoke building and car parking
arrangements to suit opportunity
 Possibility of adding rental accommodation to
generate income
 Could continue to operate out of current
branch while construction completed
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Newly Built Building cont.
 Most expensive and complicated option
 Likely to need a bridging loan until present
building was sold
 Trustee exposure to financial liability if rental
accommodation mis-managed
 Most suitable building plot ‘works’ already
sold at auction - £100,000
 Remaining plot £200,000 Too large and too
expensive
 Land owner not willing to sell any land off car
park or offices opposite branch
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Purchase of Building –
Proposed Solution
 Looked at the primary professional areas
in HX1 – best fit with surrounding
businesses and support organisations or
charities considered to be the area
bordered by Clare Road, Prescott Street
and Harrison Road.
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Available Properties Found
 Clare Road: 3,100 sq ft 1 garage 1 parking space to rear, £265,000
 Ideal location, new heating, high spec
 Would still need conversion to office premises, too expensive –
outside budget and inadequate car parking
 46 Prescott Street. 1,839 sq ft. 2 parking spaces to rear £160,000+ VAT
– already under offer, so not considered
 Prescott Street opp swimming pool – was for sale, now only for lease
 31 Harrison Road. 2,573 sq ft. 4 car parking spaces at rear. On
market at £150,000 plus VAT (agent informs would take £135K) –
Viewed
 25 Harrison Road. 2,320 sq ft. 4 car parking spaces at rear. Auction
20th June, reserve of £90 – £100,000 – expects minimum £115k
 29 Harrison Road. 1,932 sq ft. 6 parking spaces at rear. Auction 20th
June with reserve of £90 – £100k – expects minimum £115k Viewed
 Conclusion: Most flexibility and 6 parking spaces: 29 Harrison Road

 First Floor: 53.15sq m 572 sq ft

Overview
 Near to CAB and solicitor’s offices

 External Lift Access to rear and internal Lift option

large training / regional meeting room

numerous adjacent spaces at evenings/weekends
 Very spacious
 Modern electrical system
 Fire alarm and emergency lighting installed
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Issues
 Needs change of use to B2 General Offices – but
new planning laws may obviate
 Central heating, uPVC and Int./Ext. Lifts required
 Lower ground floor potentially needs tanking
 Matthew knows adjacent buildings that had issues
with roof and a spring runs underground behind
buildings – foundations of Building Society have
caused damp problems – being investigated by
surveyor/architect
 Extension to rear needs foundations and tying in
 Roof needs felting and turning
 Windows should be replaced with uPVC
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Budget Costs
 Building and Legal Costs: £117,600
 Roof Repairs: £ 6,500
 Building Repairs: £ 8,000
 Central Heating etc: £ 8,000
 Lifts: £ 7,500*
 Internal Works / uPVC: £ 19,000
 Security CCTV & Lights: £ 5,500
 Other, incl. carpets etc. £ 6,600
 Contingency £ 10,000
 Total £188,700
 *Various options available, needs a separate review
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Current Position
 An offer of £115,000 has been accepted
by vendors (a board of owners) and the
property has been removed from auction
 There are no commitments to buy, and no
costs have been incurred to date
 If the committee wishes to proceed then
we will need to sign a contract on
Wednesday 13th, and could complete in
June, to make a quick start on works
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Existing Building
 Valuation from 2 agents show
 Expected sale value should be £85,000
but it would be advisable to strongly
consider any offers in excess of £70,000
 Likely change of use to flats for buyer
 No work worth doing which would aid
sale speed due to likely full redesign
 To begin marketing a month before new
building ready
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
What is the consensus?
 Proposal strongly advised, and if agreed:
 Whatever happens we should involve
everyone in the process with good
communication throughout
 Valuable input is needed from all
volunteers, but buy-in is essential
 Visit to Wakefield and 2 other branches
with architect prior to finalising design
Samaritans Property Report June 2013
Andrew 808
Timescales
 If approved by the committee I would
estimate that we could realistically complete
on the purchase before the end of June
 Building works would most likely take about
eight weeks to complete
 Decorating and final touches may take
another four weeks then arrange move date
once completely ready
I hope this presentation has helped, please ask
any of the working party if you have any
queries. Thanks, Andrew.

  • 23. Issues  Needs change of use to B2 General Offices – but new planning laws may obviate  Central heating, uPVC and Int./Ext. Lifts required  Lower ground floor potentially needs tanking  Matthew knows adjacent buildings that had issues with roof and a spring runs underground behind buildings – foundations of Building Society have caused damp problems – being investigated by surveyor/architect  Extension to rear needs foundations and tying in  Roof needs felting and turning  Windows should be replaced with uPVC Samaritans Property Report June 2013 Andrew 808

  • 26. Existing Building  Valuation from 2 agents show  Expected sale value should be £85,000 but it would be advisable to strongly consider any offers in excess of £70,000  Likely change of use to flats for buyer  No work worth doing which would aid sale speed due to likely full redesign  To begin marketing a month before new building ready Samaritans Property Report June 2013 Andrew 808
  • 27. What is the consensus?  Proposal strongly advised, and if agreed:  Whatever happens we should involve everyone in the process with good communication throughout  Valuable input is needed from all volunteers, but buy-in is essential  Visit to Wakefield and 2 other branches with architect prior to finalising design Samaritans Property Report June 2013 Andrew 808
  • 28. Timescales  If approved by the committee I would estimate that we could realistically complete on the purchase before the end of June  Building works would most likely take about eight weeks to complete  Decorating and final touches may take another four weeks then arrange move date once completely ready I hope this presentation has helped, please ask any of the working party if you have any queries. Thanks, Andrew. Samaritans Property Report June 2013 Andrew 808
