With over 35 years of expertise, Lawrence Foote & Partners provides proactive project management and quantity surveying. We are particularly known for our ability to challenge 'abnormal' costs in land option agreements, ensuring our clients receive the true market value for their assets.

Decades of Expertise in Property & Construction

Established in 1986 by Lawrence Foote, we have spent over three decades building a reputation for excellence across the UK. We aren't just consultants; we are your partners in ensuring every project is delivered on time, on budget, and to the highest standard. Our team is selected for their ability to combine technical precision with the communication skills needed to drive a project forward.

Maximising Your Land’s Potential in Option Agreements

One of our most sought-after specialisms is helping landowners navigate the complexities of Option Agreements. Often, developers overestimate "abnormal" construction costs—such as unusual ground conditions or deep foundations—which can significantly devalue your land before you see a penny.

We act as independent cost consultants to interrogate these figures. By challenging pessimistic assumptions and negotiating realistic costs, we frequently achieve a substantial increase in the final Open Market Value for our clients. We can even act as expert witnesses if a case goes to independent determination.

Comprehensive Project Management & Cost Control

From industrial units in Sevenoaks to residential developments like Aurum Green in Basingstoke, our team handles the heavy lifting. We coordinate architects, engineers, and designers to find the optimum solution for your site.
