Freehold Sales and Purchases

We also offer a legal grooming service prior to the marketing of the property. This ensures all necessary legal information is available for the purchasers and their legal representatives as soon as a sale is agreed, thus enhancing the prospect of a swift and successful completion. 

Typical examples of recent acquisitions of commercial property include a £2.6m purchase of an industrial site in Droitwich and a £1.4m purchase of industrial site in Alcester

We also deal with all aspects of estate development and plot sales.

Lending

Our commercial property team can advise you with mortgages, charges, debentures and guarantees.

We are are retained on the specialist lending panels of major lending institutions and have established close contacts with them. This sometimes enables us to represent both you and the Lender in cases where separate representation would otherwise be required. As a result you may save both time and expense.

The team has also developed procedures that often enable us to process guarantees within a matterof days

Corporate Support

The commercial property department at Thomas Guise supports the firm’s corporate department in connection with acquisitions, disposals and finance of care homes, pubs, day nurseries, restaurants, petrol stations and garages.

Planning

Planning legislation is fast changing and complicated. We have built up good relationships with local planning authorities and regularly deal with conditional development sales, planning disputes and enquiries.

Thomas Guise recently acted on a conditional planning sale for a consideration in excess of £8m.
