Rent renewal disputes
Market rent advice for landlords and tenants at lease renewal.
Advisory
Specialist real estate advice for negotiations, property interests and asset decisions.
Who we work with
Owners, landlords, tenants, developers and public bodies use advisory services when a transaction, lease or asset decision requires more than a single value figure. We define the property interests and compare the real estate assumptions behind the available options.
When you need us
When a lease, transaction or portfolio decision involves competing interests or unusual property conditions, independent real estate advice helps clarify the valuation issues and options.
What we do
Ground lease arbitration
Valuation expertise for ground rent reviews and disputes.
Environmental contamination valuation
Property valuation where environmental contamination affects market value.
Asset rationalization
Real estate analysis to support decisions about property holdings.
Acquisitions & dispositions
Valuation and negotiation advice for property purchases and sales.
How we work
We review the property interests, documents and market evidence relevant to the assignment. Our work supports negotiations, lease disputes and asset decisions. For contaminated properties, our role is valuation advice informed by the available environmental information.
What you receive
Advice in the agreed form, such as a valuation report, options analysis or consulting memorandum. The work sets out the evidence, assumptions and implications for the decision; negotiation or dispute support can be included in the scope.
What we need to begin
Send a short description of the decision, relevant dates and the property interests involved. Depending on the issue, useful records include leases and amendments, proposed transaction terms, surveys, asset schedules, planning information and specialist environmental reports.
An anonymized assignment
For the potential acquisition of part of an employment property, gsi compared alternative acquisition configurations. The analysis distinguished developable and constrained lands and explained how boundaries, servicing and planning conditions affected the valuation scenarios.
Questions & answers
Can you compare several transaction options?
Yes. The options need a common basis of comparison, with differences in area, rights, timing and assumptions made explicit. We agree which alternatives are relevant before undertaking the analysis.
Do we need a full appraisal or a consulting study?
That depends on the decision and who will rely on the work. An initial discussion helps establish whether a formal value opinion, scenario analysis or more focused advice is appropriate.
Can advice be provided before terms are agreed?
Yes. Early analysis can clarify the property interests, information gaps and valuation considerations that should be addressed while terms are being developed.
