We provide independent advice on technical and construction matters, so that our clients understand the associated risks and opportunities relating to developments to help them make fully-informed decisions. Client types include institutional investors, banks, tenants and anyone else lending money for property development or off-plan purchases.

This specialisation entails reviewing specifications, budget costs and timeframes; drafting Development Agreements with lawyers; assessing risks associated with development works; carrying out site inspections; undertaking design reviews; approving drawing requests from developers; reviewing legal contracts; and throughout all this work, keeping our clients updated on how problems are being resolved and opportunities pursued.

Advising and guiding property development investors across the UK

More than 100 of our dedicated surveyors work on development monitoring projects, serving the UK and Europe, and working out of 11 regional offices. Each is led by proven, experienced directors, versed in all aspects of commercial property transactions, providing continuity and accountability from start to finish. Each instruction demands – and receives – a bespoke response, with clear concise advice matched to tailored guidance.
