We are able to rely on a wide database for quality evidence and our access to key sector players enables us to obtain proper information within the relevant sector. We have particular expertise in Rent Reviews and Lease Renewals for Convenience Stores, Pubs, Motor Trade, Restaurants and Leisure based businesses.

RATING APPEALS

Business rates are one of the most contentious cost issues in running a business today. Appeals under the 2010 Rating List are more difficult to negotiate and the skills required to value for rating go way beyond analysis of floor areas. Rating is a highly technical discipline and our rating experience is available for appeals based on many grounds. As a professionally qualified RICS registered firm we fully handle the dispute, presenting a full and detailed case to ensure a maximum chance of successful appeal. Ask us about our services for removing properties from rating, age related claims and advice on new or redeveloped sites.
