I have worked in the commercial property market for thirty years. During this time I have undertaken a wide variety of roles which have included; Landlord & Tenant, Compensation, Valuation and Rating. More recently, i have become involved with residential property management, but my first preference will always be commercial property. In addition to working in the main sectors of the property market, I have also undertaken some interesting cases, such as: a Halal abattoir, Crematoriums, Hydro-electric power stations and wastewater treatment works. I have also undertaken carried out rent reviews on a portfolio of medical centres in Scotland for one client.Other notably instructions include; working on providing compensation advice in relation to the proposed Midland Metro routes across the West Midlands. I have also worked on floor defence schemes in Nottingham & Shrewsbury on behalf of the Environment Agency.In recent years I have focused more on Rating and, in particular, working for the water industry. During this period I have represented six of the ten water companies in England & Wales. I have also put together a paper for the industry which focuses on the functional obsolescence of wastewater treatment works and how this can be incorporated within the valuation model.More recently, I have become involved with residential property management and whilst I have learnt some new skills in dealing with leaseholders and day to day management issues, the experience has taught me that I belong in the world of commercial property.As a result, I am now actively seeking an "interesting" position whether it be within a consultancy practice, or client side where I can use my knowledge and help others in their career progression.
