Both sides of the table.

On retail-led schemes, trading or still in development, we work out which units to let first and put reliable tenants into space that would otherwise sit dark.

For portfolio landlords we are the first call when a unit falls vacant. For retailers, we find the site and negotiate the lease.

How we work.

From first instruction through to a tenant trading in the unit.

  1. Scheme review

    We look at the void schedule, the tenant mix and where income is being lost.

  2. Strategy agreed

    A letting plan for each unit, and what a good outcome looks like.

  3. Tenants placed

    Reliable occupiers who look after the property, on terms that keep options open.

  4. Reported back

    A regular reporting cycle so you always know where each unit stands.

The questions that hold a retail deal up.

Usually asked late, and usually the reason a letting stalls.

We work the asset management angle on retail-led schemes, both existing and in development - which units to let first, which to hold back, and what the mix needs to look like before the scheme reads as full.

We advise on every aspect of retail property and negotiate terms on your behalf, so the lease you sign reflects what the unit is actually worth to you rather than what was first put in front of you.

We advise owners, occupiers, developers and investors throughout the UK - from prime pitches to parades where the real question is what the street can support.

Longer than most schemes can afford. We place reliable tenants into dark units so the scheme keeps trading while you hold out for the letting you actually want.

More than the passing rent. We set out the full cost of occupation including business rates, and the relief available where it applies.

Most policies are not written for it. We hold exclusive access to a service built specifically for temporary retail spaces.
