We help clients balance lease terms and fit-out standards to suit this diverse tenant base.
Can you advise on change of use for listed or heritage buildings in York?
Yes. We regularly work with properties in conservation areas and listed buildings throughout the city centre. Our team liaises with planning consultants and local authorities to ensure any conversion or redevelopment aligns with policy while preserving architectural character and long-term investment value.
