We’ve been working with Nick for over 20 years, since the early days of our Holiday Inn Express franchise. He knows who to connect with, how to manage the process to deliver the site and the scheme. Since expanding into the care sector, we have called on Nick again and he has delivered our first site, in Winchester.

Nick’s contacts and his agency and development background have been invaluable in bringing us deals off market which we have been able to deliver for our occupier clients. He understands the investment and development process and works discreetly and on his own initiative. He’s a trusted colleague, good at helping both sides find the deal.

We have worked with Nick historically at Pillar and much more recently at LMP where he has acquired a site which was then let to M+S in Cowes and a further site in Weymouth from New Look which we expect to pre let to a number of high profile occupiers, subject to planning. Nick has a good knowledge of the commercial property market in the south and we hope that he will continue to find more accretive deals for us.
We’ve worked with Nick for several years and brought him in to help manage our purchase of Kingston Marine Park and Island Technology Park from the HCA (Homes England), where his background in commercial development was invaluable. On the other side of the table he was really helpful, as ever, in our complex acquisition of BAE’s surplus offices in Cowes, for our contact centre partner, creating up to 1,000 jobs.

Richard and I trained with Nick in our first jobs after college, in the West End. When we needed specialist advice in the Solent area Nick was our first choice as an experienced professional. As well as being a super person to deal with, Nick has blue chip investment management experience, development skills and great market knowledge.

We instructed Savills to let the surplus floorspace at our sensitive radar facility in Cowes and they immediately recommended Nick to work alongside them. His contacts and great relationship with the Local Authority led to them taking the entire floorspace. We are thrilled to have helped create a large number of full time jobs on the island with Nick’s input.
