Brent's commercial property market is centred on the Wembley area, where significant regeneration has brought new commercial and retail development alongside the stadium and arena complex.

A terminal schedule of dilapidations is a claim prepared by the landlord's surveyor at or near the end of a commercial lease. It identifies each breach of the tenant's repairing, decorating and reinstatement obligations under the lease, with costed remedial works for each item. The schedule is then served on the tenant as the basis for negotiation.
The dilapidations process in Brent typically takes two to five months from service of the schedule to agreed settlement. Claims on straightforward retail units may settle quickly, while more complex instructions on industrial premises at Park Royal or multi-let commercial buildings can take longer.
