Property Management
Our property management team ensures fair, recoverable service charges while maintaining building standards. We audit historical and proposed charge arrangements, negotiate terms, and advise on compliance with RICS codes. Clients benefit from tailored strategies that balance landlord obligations with tenant expectations, ensuring cost transparency and operational efficiency across commercial and mixed-use developments.
Valuations
RICS-registered valuers deliver transparent, research-backed reports for commercial, residential, and specialist sectors. Our analysis considers current market conditions, avoiding generic statistics in favour of property-specific insights. Services include loan security valuations, probate assessments, and development appraisals, supporting informed decisions for lenders, investors, and occupiers through detailed reasoning and up-to-date market intelligence.
Business Rates Consultancy
We specialise in reducing business rate liabilities through rating list appeals and material change assessments. Our success-driven approach targets traditional and specialist properties, including car showrooms and emergency service facilities. Fees are success-based, focusing on measurable savings through empty rate allowances, discretionary relief claims, and strategic negotiations with local authorities.

FHP provides strategic lease renewal advice, preparing 12-18 months in advance to protect asset value and tenant flexibility. Our team combines market analysis with legal expertise to negotiate terms, handle rent reviews, and resolve disputes. We represent landlords and tenants in commercial, retail, and industrial sectors, ensuring agreements align with current market conditions and legal requirements.
