  • That's massively disappointing but not really surprising. Considering the monster amount of 'redevelopment' happening in the area, I imagine everyone wants to sell and make some cash.
    It was such a great place to work. Come in, spend all day there and leave having hit two birds with one stone.
    Would insurance and liability be entirely different to setting up say...a standard workshop?

    Also..anyone got an Abba stand or some such I could borrow for a few days?

  • Yeah, most argue that customers paying monthly/hourly to use the space for their own gain = sub letting (or a form of), so you either have to own the premises yourself, or have a "right to sublet" within the tenancy agreement.
    Or use the argument that "well it's kinda like a gym", where you have customers who are accessing the building themselves, using equipment and space/services for their own gain; Only in the case of a gym it's to get ripped/feel less guilty about that double cake lunch you just had, wheareas in omc/my case it's to get that new clutch pack installed.

    It's about finding the right landlord and getting the right liability cover in place, not an easy combo.
