Services

We work closely with our clients to ensure a deep understanding of the brand profile, their core customer and future goals.

We work hard to understand the current successes and performance of each existing store, and undertake important analysis of comparable and competing brands. Once specific target towns have been identified, we use our market knowledge, and contacts with other agents and landlords around the country, to identify specific properties which will be desirable to our clients, canvassing any stores that are particularly attractive.

We have an established reputation as one of the UK’s leading acquisition property agents. We are therefore regularly contacted by property companies or their retail advisers and offered interesting opportunities which can often be secured before a property is formally marketed.

At Orme, we know that successfully managing a property portfolio doesn’t start and end with a good agency.

We offer a full property consultancy service, including advice on rent reviews, lease renewals and lease restructures, from supplying budget figures, planning strategies for tackling particular units, through reporting, liaison with landlords and their agents, and, where necessary, offering expert witness advice to a third party or court.

The synergy between our agency and professional teams helps us to offer constructive, commercial advice, with the knowledge of our clients’ aspirations for a particular property, often using routine reviews and renewals as an opportunity to enter into more creative lease restructure negotiations.

Our reputation depends on our ability to continually demonstrate our worth to clients through successful and focused negotiations. We fight hard to obtain the best value for our clients in all our deals, while retaining a sense of commercial reality derived from our detailed knowledge of the retail market.

We highlight land and buildings with the potential for development, extension or refurbishment that suit our clients’ business aims.

Through Orme’s extensive contacts of developers, investors, private individuals, occupiers and end users across the industry, we are in a unique position to highlight development opportunities.

We provide all the advice required once a potential project has commenced, and work closely with our clients to guide them through the entire development process, from the scheme’s conception, through implementation, leasing in conjunction with our retail agency colleagues, and sale so that any risks are reduced and the return on the development is maximised.
