Property owners

The commercial real estate world is evolving. Understanding and meeting tenant demand is more important than ever. By providing in demand workspace and space-as-a-service, either directly or alongside a flexible workspace operator, property owners will ensure their assets remain relevant in today’s market.
We advise property owners, funds, investors and developers on their options and strategies in these ever-evolving flexible workspace and space-as-a-service markets.

By understanding how these sectors can be of benefit to assets and portfolios, including mixed use and high street repurposing, commercial property owners will be well positioned to make the most of the new ways that tenants will use and ultimately demand space.

Why flexible workspace

Flexible workspace and space-as-a-service have dramatically disrupted the global real estate sector.

Occupier demand in terms of flexibility and product have changed for good. So too has the way occupiers find space, with online brokers increasingly fulfilling search demands. The sector is maturing rapidly and property owners need to offer more than traditional offices if they are to remain relevant.

How we can help

We advise real estate owners on how flexible workspace can enhance their portfolio or specific assets and how to match the right flexible workspace product to the right asset.

We specialise in joint venture/management agreements and have advised on over 50 of these types of transaction throughout the UK and Europe.
