Overview
Working as part of one of the largest real estate teams in the country, our portfolio management specialists focus on fixed fee instructions, volume matter management and the less complex elements of larger transactions. We support all areas of the real estate practice.
Our track-record for success speaks for itself. We have experience of handling anything from 50 to 2,000 matters at any one time for individual clients, saved an average of 100 days of deal time for one client and significantly reduced costs in this and many other instances.
We stand out, however, for the way in which we underpin our deep expertise and experience in portfolio management with a firm-wide commitment to innovation and customised solutions. We deploy technology to underpin our work, to handle large volumes of transactions and to provide a real time, transparent view of work status, 24x7.
You can trust us to deliver high quality solutions in swift, sophisticated, customised and creative ways, helping you to achieve commercial success across your real estate portfolios.
