Why tenant-side only
Surveyors who act for both sides must ration what they say. Acting exclusively for tenants means the analysis, the settlement records and the argument all point one way: keeping your occupancy cost proportionate to what the unit can actually trade.
What you get
An initial view on whether the review is worth fighting — some are not — then, where it is, full conduct of the review from evidence gathering to settlement or third-party determination.
- Free initial appraisal of the review clause and likely outcome
- Zoned valuation and devalued comparable schedule
- Written negotiation with the landlord's surveyor
- Arbitration or independent expert representation where needed
