Blandy & Blandy Sees A Rise in Development Land Work

Blandy & Blandy has seen an increase in development land work in the past 12 months, according to Katja Wigham, a partner in the firm's Commercial Property team.

She explained: “Despite the uncertainty in the property market tied to Brexit and other political and economic factors, we are delighted to have seen an increase in our work for both landowners and developers this year, and to have welcomed a number of new clients.

While at times some deals are taking longer to get over the line, there remains a strong appetite in Reading and the Thames Valley with investors, lenders, landowners and developers taking a broader and longer term view.”

In spring, the firm hosted a "sell-out" seminar, ‘The Anatomy of a Development Deal’, alongside guest speakers from Haslams Chartered Surveyors and Pegasus Group. On 17 October, the three firms will be hosting part two in that series at Reading Borough Council’s offices.

Blandy & Blandy is home to award-winning Commercial Property and Residential Property teams and is ranked among the top 25 firms for Planning Law in the UK. The firm is also highly recommended in the UK’s leading guides to law firms, Chambers UK and The Legal 500.
