Rent Reviews and Lease Renewals Many years experience in this field is utilised to the benefit of our clients whether acting for landlords or tenants. We hold a comprehensive database of information and are persistent in obtaining the information to underpin our valuations. The value of any building is a factor of the open market but is significantly affected by the complexities of the actual lease.  As experienced Chartered Surveyors we are fully conversant with both the market values and the legal background necessary to obtain the best result for you. On occasion it is not possible to reach a negotiated settlement and either party can refer the decision to an independent surveyor for determination. In these circumstances we can represent you either by producing a required written submission or at the Oral Hearing. BACK TO TOP
