We are passionate about place making and our work and thought leadership in the development sector gives us a unique perspective that truly benefits our clients. We work with developers, contractors, operators, funders and investors, from both the private and public sectors to support their development projects. We take time to understand our clients businesses to ensure that we understand what they wish to achieve from a project. From inception of an idea, though to acquisition of a site, to partnering with others and through delivery and on to operation and sales, we have a committed, knowledgeable and driven team to help you with whatever development scheme that you have.

We can help you with all aspects of the development cycle; be that with concepts, heads of terms for new opportunities, due diligence, procurement structure, contract drafting and negotiation, to delivery. We are known for our commercial acumen and no nonsense approach, and have an expert understanding of the industry, funders requirements and exit strategies. We understand the need to manage risk and cost. We know how to get a deal done.

We specialise in advising on residential led schemes including the delivery of private sale, Built to Rent, student, care and retirement living, alongside the delivery of affordable housing models. We advise on strategic land opportunities and commercial development projects including the creation of business parks and retail sites and our leisure specialists regularly advise on the creation of new places to shop, eat and relax.
