DESKTOP HEADER

Local and central governments, schools, and other public sector service providers are the backbone of the UK. But with tight budgets and limited knowledge of the property industry, organisations within this sector require professional guidance to navigate complex situations. 

The public sector is often stretched and underfunded, with times of economic hardship, rising demand for services, and constant budgetary pressures making day-to-day operations extremely difficult. While your focus will primarily be on keeping your services functioning, your properties may be neglected, leading to structural damage and underperformance. 

Whether you run a school, housing association, local council, or another publicly owned organisation, the property challenges you face can often be more complex than those in the private sector. That is why we have developed a collection of bespoke services that ensure you have access to quality property solutions. 

 Our rounded service guides you through the planning, delivery, and monitoring of a development project, with our solutions spanning maintenance tasks through to entire building renovations. Each solution is designed to help you achieve long-term growth and support your local population. We can also act as advisors for a range of tasks, including estate strategy, Private Finance Initiative (PFI) issues, and financial modelling.

 Whatever your requirements, it is our job to find property solutions that ensure you can continue delivering the best service possible.
