Real estate asset management

Property management is said by some to be the Achilles' heel of property investment. Not by us. We don't treat it as routine.

Our asset management team acts on all matters connected with lettings.

We work closely with our real estate disputes lawyers giving advice on determination of tenancies, insolvency, dilapidations, forfeiture, debt recovery, breaches of covenant and 1954 Act lease renewals.

We work with our clients and their retained professional advisors to help maximise the performance of their real estate assets by giving strategic as well as practical legal advice. We pride ourselves on being proactive and providing pragmatic, cost effective advice and solutions. We keep abreast of changing market practices and sentiment, which enables us to offer effective compromises in negotiations and speed up completions.

Our asset management group provides regular updates for landlords and their managing agents by way of seminars and publications. See tip of the week and top tips to preserve income.
