Martin Barratt (Managing Director) and Janine Tijou (Property Consultant) have many years experience working in the property and planning industry, helping to showcase future built environments. Since 1999 they have worked with the UKs largest planning consultancies, developers, land and property buyers and sellers and also with a host of of smaller independent developers and investors throughout the UK.

*Important: Whilst we make every effort to complete in a reasonable and quick timescale, there are sometimes circumstances that might affect the actual completion date, and in extreme circumstances our ability to purchase. Our initial offer is provisional and will only be confirmed once we are in receipt of a survey, and the searches and contracts are deemed satisfactory by our legal team.
Other factors may affect our decision to purchase, or affect the price we eventually agree. Prior to a legal exchange of contracts we can rescind the agreement at any time if we have any knowledge or we are advised that the property is not as initially described and/or anything comes to light that may have affected its value. Alternatively, the purchase price may be renegotiated by mutual consent. In the event we rescind the agreement then all legal aborted costs, disbursements and survey fees in the transaction will be met by us. We strongly advise not to commit to any expenditure or completion dates until legal exchange has taken place.
