Development is a very competitive market. Identifying sites to build or redevelop, ensuring it is feasible as well as viable, and managing a scheme from design right through to delivery can have many challenges and delays along the way. From the initial concept to the delivery of the end product, the main focus needs to remain on creating value.

How we do it

Our Development Consultancy team of seven surveyors advise clients across London and the South East in both the public and private sectors, ranging from single plots to many hundreds of acres. We act for a variety of clients from Private Companies, Major Banks and Lending Institutions, NHS Estates and Trusts, Local Authorities, Charities, Schools and Colleges as well as Private Landowners, to ensure best value is secured.

Evolve Housing + Support are a registered charity and social landlord, working across South London. We worked with Richard Pillow at SHW to value and then sell several properties within our portfolio, including a 14-bed HMO. Richard gave excellent advice on how to achieve the best price for these properties and handled viewings and the offering process really well. This gave us complete confidence to make recommendations to our Board who were considering the offers and we sold the HMO for the maximum value at £1.1m. I would highly recommend working with Richard and the wider team at SHW on valuations and sales of properties.

Alice Hainsworth, Director of Business Development, Evolve Housing
