Helping tenants to buy

We act for a number of businesses including leading confectioner of Toffifee, Storck, and strategic outsourcing company, Mitie, to acquire commercial property space to meet both short and long term business needs.

We understand the real estate markets and use our in-depth knowledge of the sector to source exclusive opportunities which will get the best possible outcome for you.

Importantly, we work hard to understand your current and future business needs, and will seek out any long term saving opportunities that you can take advantage of such as business rates advice and the 2017 Rating Revaluation.

We’ll also flag up any potential issues to be aware of, such as expensive commercial rent reviews, issues sub-letting, onerous service charges and dilapidations, all of which can creep up on you throughout your lease.
