The law governing Compulsory Purchase is complex, but the overriding principle is that claimants should be fully compensated and left no worse off (financially) as a result of the Compulsory Purchase Order.
Professional costs are usually reimbursed as part of the compensation package.
This means our fees will typically be met at the expense of the acquiring authority, rather than the claimant.

Owners of vacant commercial property are entitled a period of rates relief (3 or 6 months, depending on the type of property) when a property first falls vacant after 6 weeks of continuous occupation.
Simon Alexander maintains a database of businesses with flexible space requirements who can take occupation of your premises on a short term basis to trigger a fresh period of rates relief.
If you run the sort of business that can be flexible and make good use of commercial space for a short period, we may be able to find you premises at minimal (or even no) cost.

Simon Alexander offers valuation expertise with an emphasis on situations requiring more than simply a figure and a pro forma report.
Most 'mainstream' surveying practices shy away from valuation instructions they regard to as awkward, preferring to churn out standardised reports.
Simon Alexander deals with each instruction individually and provides a bespoke service tailored to the client's needs and the purpose of the valuation.
We will never decline any instruction that falls within our professional competence.
