Straightforward Advice for the South East Commercial Market

At FTDJOHNS, we believe property consultancy should be simple. Whether you are an owner, occupier, investor, or developer, we provide the candid, insightful advice you need to make informed decisions. Based in Crawley, we have spent decades navigating the West Sussex and South East markets, building a reputation for "Real Knowledge" and "Capability."

Our clients enjoy a helpful and straightforward approach. In a world where clear property advice is often sought but rarely given, we pride ourselves on being comprehensive and candid with every instruction we receive.

Why Our Lease Advisory Protects Your Bottom Line

The terms of your lease agreement directly impact your financial success. We use rigorous negotiation skills and in-depth technical knowledge to ensure your lease fulfills your specific objectives.

We advise both landlords and tenants on all aspects of rent reviews and lease renewals. From the 221,037 sq ft Royal Mail Sorting Centre in Crawley to smaller office suites, we have a highly successful track record of interpreting lease provisions to our clients' best effect. If negotiations reach a stalemate, we have the experience to act as an Expert Witness in Arbitration or Independent Expert references.
