Our Services

As Chartered Surveyors, Valuers and experienced property, land and estate managers, we consult on a diverse range of matters.

Our clients’ portfolios consist of residential, agricultural, equestrian and commercial property.  We have extensive experience across a wide range of situations and tailor our approach to meet your specific needs, whether that’s providing comprehensive ongoing management or job specific advice.

We will lift your administrative burden, ensuring that your estate is compliant and runs efficiently.  We will help you enjoy your property and achieve your desired level of income and capital growth.  We offer a friendly and flexible approach to estate management.

Our Estate Management Consultancy encompasses all the traditional task-orientated elements of land agency and management but adopts a relationship-orientated approach.

  • We structure our involvement entirely to your need, adopting a modern approach with discretion at the heart of every instruction.  Whether you are time constrained,  require advice on a technical matter, or simply require assistance in managing your property, we have a long-term commitment to fulfilling your objectives.

    We oversee in-house estate management teams and provide advice that is fully integrated with all estate enterprises, departments and levels of management.

  • We understand the significance of life events and respect your assets as we would our own. Our considered approach to estate problem solving means we can take a proposal from conception to implementation with the best outcome. We think outside the box when looking at succession and inter-generational change, working with your other professional advisers to ensure the value of the interest is recognised and the taxation position fully understood.

    We know that taking a fresh look at an asset base can often lead to alternative solutions and always look at the bigger picture to ensure we deliver the right results.

  • We will work closely with you to deliver strategic opportunities including residential and commercial development, through partnering with developers or promoters to achieve the right results. We will monitor and advise on your interests throughout the process.

    We also advise on the different opportunities in the renewable energy sector, including options for solar, battery storage and electric vehicle charging.

  • We strongly believe it is our client’s interest that lies at the heart of a successful enterprise.  That is why our approach to diversifying interests is modern, considered and always in line with your objectives for income, capital growth and overall enjoyment.

    In a changing world and with pressures being placed on the land, land use and landowner responsibility, along with any leisure and tourism opportunities contributing income and capital growth, we advise on the opportunities and funding streams associated with the landscape, stewardship of the environment and natural capital value.

  • As experienced RICS Registered Valuers and Fellows of the Central Association of Agricultural Valuers (CAAV), we undertake Red Book Valuations for taxation and Charities Act purposes, as well as conducting internal valuations for estate planning and valuations for negotiation purposes.  We establish your exacting requirements and structure our advice according to the legislative and regulatory framework, giving you advice that is entirely fit for purpose at the right time.
