Specialist Property Partners to the Healthcare Sector

We have carved out a significant niche as property consultants to the healthcare sector. Our team is regularly retained by GP Practices and major NHS Trusts to navigate the complexities of medical property management.

We help healthcare providers with:

• Notional Rent Appeals: Challenging PCT proposals to ensure your practice receives the correct income.
• Asset Valuations: Establishing equity for retirements, resignations, or recruitment within a partnership.
• Sale and Leaseback: Advising on the strategic disposal of surgery buildings to third-party investors.
• Rating Minimisation: We currently work with two major NHS Trusts in the West Midlands to significantly reduce their business rates through appeals related to building demolitions and changes of use.

Decades of Chartered Expertise

Our practice is led by John White MRICS, our Managing Director. John qualified as a Chartered Surveyor in 1986 and has spent the last 20 years running this specialist firm. When you hire us, you aren't dealing with a junior trainee; you are getting the direct attention of a professional with nearly four decades of experience in the UK property market.

Protecting Your Commercial Interests

Beyond healthcare, we provide a comprehensive suite of professional services designed to protect the bottom line for commercial occupiers and property owners.

We also provide robust representation at Valuation Tribunals for rating appeals and negotiate lease renewals to secure the most favourable terms possible before you sign on the dotted line.
