We understand that throughout the lifecycle of a building adaptation and changes will need to be made to keep up with client requirements and ever-changing commercial and residential markets. It is essential that assets are actively maintained and improved to enhance value and use.
Services
Healthcare
Medical properties continue to move closer to becoming a mainstream asset class, however this sector is subject to legislation, process and standards not required with other commercial properties. It is imperative to get professional advice to ensure that the optimal results are achieved.
Business Rates
Business rates represent a large cost for occupiers of commercial premises and owners of vacant property. For Rating List 2017, legislation, and the introduction of the 'Check, Challenge & Appeal' system, is complex, and ratepayers need to be aware that ill-advised challenges against their rating assessments could even result in increases, rather than reductions.
Professional Education Services
At SHW we cover a wide range of educational uses from nurseries to independent day schools and world class universities.
Lease Advisory
Are you a landlord looking to increase the rent or a tenant looking to keep the rental level as low as possible?
Out of Town Retail
During 2023, SHW merged with the specialist retail consultancy, Ashwell Rogers, to enhance the businesses’ involvement in the Out of Town Retail and Leisure Sector across the UK. The team have a long standing commitment to this sector with extensive experience in advising owners and developers on their out of town retail and leisure property holdings nationally.
Valuation
The valuation of property can be a complicated process and can highlight issues previously not contemplated; for example, the possible impact of Energy Performance Certificates or the impact on the Market Value if the tenants left.
Leasehold Enfranchisement
We provide valuation advice to both Freeholders and Leaseholders in London & the South East under the 1993 Leasehold Reform, Housing & Urban Development Act.
Dispute Resolution
Sometimes disputes can arise between landlords and their tenants. SHW have experienced surveyors who can act as Arbitrators or Independent Experts appointed by the President of the RICS or directly by agreement between the parties. Our team acts on a variety of rent review and lease renewal disputes on all types of commercial property throughout London and the South-East of England. In addition we are able to act nationally within the Out of Town Retail sector.

Carlie has been handling our Lease and refurbishment negotiations. She has been absolutely brilliant, and we cannot praise her highly enough. We have had a difficult couple of years and at the start of the negotiations we were effectively a single-handed partnership with lots of challenges. Carlie's knowledge and understanding of the lease negotiation process has been invaluable to us. She is highly professional, reassuring, and has been extremely capable in representing our interests and mitigating our risks whilst being pragmatic about the position of our landlord”.
