I’m a Partner in our Leeds office. I joined the company in 2010, now with 30 years of General Practice experience, specialising in commercial property valuation, leasehold consultancy and property taxation areas of work.
I lead some of Gerald Eve’s national portfolio valuation instructions for the north and north eastern region, providing advice to national and local property holding bodies and major high street lending institutions. My work relates to the office, retail and industrial sectors.
I also advise on a wide variety of strategic leasehold consultancy matters including rent reviews / lease renewals as well as compensation work.
I head up several of our national portfolio client property taxation service contracts and I also represent clients in the County Court on lease consultancy matters including other third party representation work as well as the Valuation Tribunal appearance work, in capacity as an Expert Witness.
I am one of our company’s rating specialists handling 2010 and 2017 appeal work. I manage some of our larger national client portfolios to include AS Watson, Specsavers, Done Brothers, Beaconsfield Footwear and BMB Fashion. I also manage several local authority clients encompassing specialist property types.
