I never promise miracles, but I can often substantially reduce proposals...

Faced with a hefty proposal, or an impossible landlord, you may think the outcome a foregone conclusion. However, because tenancy law and shop rental valuation can work both ways, another interpretation of the lease, and/or a different approach to negotiation, can often result in a substantial saving.

If you would like some general advice before instructing me then please feel free to contact me, by telephone 01531 631892 or email

PS - Unlike many surveyors who are themselves property investors, I am not a landlord. However, unlike many surveyors, I do have actual experience of what is entailed in the day-to-day management of a shop: for about 6 years, I partnered my wife in the overall running of her shop in Ledbury, selling organic and natural skin-care products, my duties including serving customers, stock control and clearing up at the end of the day!
