This is the prime location for informed opinion on property matters: finance, law, development, investment, planning, taxation, offices, retail, industrial, distribution, residential, healthcare, hotels and leisure. If it’s property, it’s in the remit. In online courses, conferences, webinars, and journals, we make sure the important issues are covered – sound, comprehensive and thorough.

Here to keep you informed; because it’s knowledge that underpins value – CPD at its very best.

The past matters because One: it has determined today’s stock of opportunities and Two: it contains valuable lessons of what proved to be the right decisions and what were not. 

The present matters because this is the market in which decisions are made. 

The future matters because that is where the outcome of decisions made today will prove to have been right or wrong – what we do must be possible in the present market and wanted in the markets yet to come.
