Occupier Service Success in Milton Keynes

June 19, 2024

Kirkby Diamond’s lease advisory team were recently instructed by the tenant, a well-known local occupier, regarding their outstanding rent review on a 10,000 sq ft warehouse in Blakelands, Milton Keynes, where the landlord had proposed a significant rent increase. Having the experience of renewal negotiations, local market knowledge and the supporting market evidence, we swiftly completed the review, securing our client a sensible discount from the landlord’s proposal. We have since been approached by neighbouring occupiers to provide lease advisory services.

Client Feedback / Quote: “We've consistently recognized the benefit of partnering with qualified property advisors during rent reviews and related matters. Seeking expertise in the Milton Keynes market, we were thrilled to discover Mark Hannam and the Kirkby Diamond team. Kirkby Diamond's in-depth local knowledge proved invaluable, coupled with their seamless and professional service. Mark's personal touch was an added bonus, fostering a collaborative and efficient process. The outcome exceeded our expectations, demonstrating the true value of their expertise. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kirkby Diamond and look forward to collaborating with them again in the future..”

Mark Hannam, Head of Lease Advisory at Kirkby Diamond, commented: “Its imperative occupiers seek professional advice on any lease event, be it a rent review, lease renewal or lease regear, to make sure their interests are suitably protected, and they don’t agree to terms that might cause issues in the future. This rent review was a prime example of seeking local market professional experience, the result being a material rent saving which more than covered the fee. ”
