Many law firms will tell you that they specialise in buying and selling property. Merely buying property or selling it, however, is only part of the story. The most successful property investors actively manage the properties in the meantime. Having acted for pension company investors, property plcs, major occupiers and single purpose vehicles, Carter Lemon Camerons know what to look out for and what to concentrate on in every circumstance. Most solicitors firms in England will tell you that they specialise in acquisition of commercial property and selling investment property. Merely buying property or selling it, however, is only part of the story. 

Poor or lax management of commercial property, with ineffective or incomplete documents or approvals, will depress the income and delay or reduce the price or even sink an opportunity for selling the commercial property 

Even when dealing with the largest city law firms, at Carter Lemon Camerons we frequently find ourselves rehearsing what can and cannot - or what should and should not - be done in terms of property management. This is done not to "score points" but to protect the rights of our clients, for example:

·  the right to assign a lease and move on,

·  the right to vet properly the proposed assignee,

·  the right to regulate tenant mix, and

·  our clients' rights in any insolvency situations.

Many property owners or occupiers are exposed in relation to property management yet few lawyers or surveyors see - and practise - it as a specialism. Carter Lemon Camerons do and we promise to excel.
