Lease Advisory

Services

Whether renewing a commercial lease, considering a break option, or facing a rent review or dilapidations, our knowledgeable, market-based advice will ensure you make optimal decisions that deliver the best cost savings and value.

Lease-advisory

One of the UK's largest lease advisory teams, we operate across all real estate asset types identifying and providing tailored solutions to help you achieve the most favourable settlements across the life cycle of your commercial lease. 

Rent Reviews

We protect your interests, using our in-depth market and technical lease knowledge to get your business the best rent review outcomes achievable.

Lease Renewals

Lease renewals can be complex requiring advice around their legal frameworks. We guide you through the entire process, from commercial rent to operational lease terms, ensuring a smooth process and the best results.

Lease Restructuring

If looking to restructure a lease, our advice will be aligned to your strategic business needs.  In-depth analysis will identify the best solution to maximise value such as removing or deferring break options or extending your lease. 

Dilapidations

Our team provides specialist guidance on commercial real estate dilapidation valuations.  When your commercial lease expires, our advice on ‘diminution in value’ issues, under Section 18 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1927, can influence the level of dilapidation claims against you. 

Dispute Resolution, Arbitration and Expert Witness

If faced with a lease dispute or arbitration, our senior team will be by your side with a multi-disciplinary approach that works.  Regularly appointed as independent expert witnesses or arbitrators, our wide-ranging experience gets positive results for our investor and occupier clients. 

Paul Abrey, Head of Professional Services

“Working with both investors and occupiers, we use our expert knowledge of leasing market data and technical subject matter to deliver the best commercial outcome for clients.“
