Occupier Services

Occupier Services

This is a professional service dedicated to, and strictly for, existing or potential tenants and users of commercial, industrial, institutional, and residential premises by way of leases, tenancies or licences. Whether long standing occupiers or new business start-ups I can advise and negotiate on the terms and conditions applying or being offered.


Impartial Advice

I do not let property on behalf of or represent landlords in any capacity so my independence ensures that I can confidently achieve the best possible result for tenants without compromise or fear of any conflict of interest arising.

How I Can Help

I am happy to advise on all types of lettings with particular emphasis on shops offices industrial workshops sheds and storage facilities as well as residential property and institutional type arrangements for the public charitable and voluntary sectors.

The UK economy continues to face some challenging times so it is important for any business to keep premises related costs to an absolute minimum. It is essential therefore to keep such costs and outgoings under constant review and renegotiate where possible and anyone contemplating a new business venture needs to capitalise on the potential of preferential lease arrangements  such as rent free periods and early access agreement and that’s where I can help you.
