Property Hub

This is the prime location for informed opinion on property matters: finance, law, development, investment, planning, taxation, offices, retail, industrial, distribution, residential, healthcare, hotels and leisure. If it’s property, it’s in the remit. In online courses, conferences, webinars, and journals, we make sure the important issues are covered – sound, comprehensive and thorough.

Here to keep you informed; because it’s knowledge that underpins value – CPD at its very best.

Recent years have seen a substantial increase in awareness of the role the built environment plays in global carbon emissions. 

Creating or choosing sustainable office space is an important step towards a greener and brighter future both for the real estate industry and the planet. 

Reputation conscious companies pay higher rents for sustainable offices. Investors place higher capitalisation rates on sustainable offices. Finance is more available and costs less the more sustainable a building is.  

Anita is a Partner and Head of Planning in Mishcon de Reya's Real Estate department. Her team advises leading commercial and residential property developers, property companies, investment funds and high net worth individuals on a broad range of planning matters.

A property truism: whatever the condition every property has a value – even if that value is a negative value. 

Inappropriate cladding has created a problem. Remedial works need to be done. Those remedial works will have a cost and someone (perhaps multiple individuals and organisations) will have to pay those costs. 

Before works are undertaken, interests (either freeholds and/or leaseholds) in the property will have a value. After the works are completed, the same property (and those interests) will have value.
