Monitoring Surveying & Due Diligence

Our Monitoring Surveying team adopt an experienced and pragmatic view of development risks, from the initial pre-commitment stages of funding or acquisition, through to project execution and post-completion.

Our team, who have over 30 years of combined experience and knowledge, are effective in delivering technical due diligence and development monitoring across all construction industry sectors, including modular construction and property-based transactions. Where necessary, we draw upon support from various in-house disciplines and/or engage and manage specialist sub-consultancy.

Our guidance is tailored to the objectives of each Client and their specific requirements, whether as a lender, long term investor or owner/occupier.

Our approach is to protect the Clients interests by providing objective and impartial advisory services on the development process and highlighting any potential issues which could affect those interests, where possible proposing mitigation measures. We advocate a collaborative approach with both our Client and the developer to avoid conflicts that could otherwise lead to time and cost implications. We provide peace of mind to our Clients and act as a guide through the increasingly complex journey of the development and construction process.

We deliver technical due diligence and development monitoring on behalf of a range of financial institutions, investors and owner/occupiers, across developments ranging in value from <£1m to £250m+.
