A Win-Win Proposition

CHIp are a registered Community Interest Company which means we are eligible for a mandatory 80% saving on business rates and able to also negotiate a discretionary relief for the remaining 20% through the local authority.

As a commercial property owner, you are likely to currently be paying for:

  • Business rates

  • Security

  • High insurance fees due to being empty

And are also likely to be at risk of:

  • Vandalism

  • Building deterioration 

  • Theft of materials

CHIp can take your property on a short, mid or long term lease and convert into a creative pop-up hub.

How you will benefit from leasing your empty property to CHIp:

  • Business rates savings of up to 100%

  • Reduction in other financial burdens such as insurances

  • Building occupancy and management 

  • Basic maintenance provision

  • New relationships with the local authority, local community and CHIp.

Not only does this offer clear financial gain, it also gives you the opportunity to be part of a movement which has already proved successful in different parts of the country. This is a chance to breathe life back into Ipswich.
