We act on behalf of both landlords and tenants in the office and industrial sectors negotiating new rents which are under review (including arbitration proceedings), as well as agreeing lease renewals and surrenders.

We are actively involved in the acquisition of “off-market” sites and buildings for residential development on behalf of the leading UK house builders, including Barratt Homes, Comer Homes, Zed Homes, Fairview New Homes and Berkeley Homes.

We regularly identify sites where existing use is substantially below development potential. This often involves a detailed strategic plan for the acquisition of adjoining land-holdings to maximise value.

We research and regularly identify existing buildings which are either vacant or partially income producing, with potential for conversion to business centres.

PAF have become one of the leading advisors in this sector, identifying and acquiring numerous individual properties and portfolios.
These include properties in multiple occupation on either short leases or licences, where active management and re-branding can substantially enhance asset value.

We act on behalf of UK and Irish property companies in either selling or acquiring income producing properties throughout the UK.
These are often sold either discretely or acquired “off-market”. We also assist with asset management to further enhance value.

One of the fastest expanding areas within the UK industrial sector – we regularly sell to, or acquire for, the four main UK self-storage companies, namely Safestore Plc, Access Self-Storage, Big Yellow and Shurgard.

We have vast experience advising land owners how to maximise land value through the planning system. We focus on combining national policies with local demands, and work closely with local planning authorities and communities to provide new homes and facilities.
