Fiona Dalgliesh MRICS

Expert Commercial Lease Advice Across England and Wales

We understand that a lease is more than just a document—it’s a critical factor in your business's financial health or your portfolio's investment value. Based in Carlisle but operating nationwide, we bring over two decades of high-level expertise to the table, ensuring you never pay more than you should or receive less than your property is worth.

Why Landlords and Tenants Trust Our Insight

Our founder, Fiona Dalgliesh, has been a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (MRICS) since 2003. Having honed her skills at two of the world’s top five international real estate consultancies in London and Bristol, she established our firm in 2014 to provide a more personal, dedicated service.

Specialist Support for Your Property Portfolio

Whether you are a local business owner or a major UK charity managing a national shop portfolio, we provide the same level of rigorous analysis and negotiation. We specialise exclusively in landlord and tenant matters, meaning our focus is never diluted.

• Rent Reviews: We navigate the 3- or 5-year market cycles to ensure your rent reflects current conditions. If matters cannot be agreed, we act as an Expert Witness for Arbitrators or Independent Experts.
• Lease Renewals: We guide you through the 1954 Landlord and Tenant Act, managing break options, lease lengths, and rent-free periods.
• Lease Restructuring: We identify opportunities to extend terms or remove breaks to increase investment value for landlords or reduce costs for tenants.

"We don't just process paperwork; we act as your strategic partner, using market data and decades of negotiation experience to secure the best possible terms."

Award-Winning Professionalism

Our reputation is built on results. Fiona is a Commercial Property Award winner and has been featured in the Property Week Top 100. As a former Branch Chair of the Association of Women in Property, she brings a level of industry-leading expertise that is rare in a boutique firm.

We pride ourselves on being approachable yet formidable in negotiations. Whether you are facing a looming rent review or looking to restructure your existing lease terms, we provide the professional benchmark you need to move forward with confidence.
