You should plan for the
future says Ward Design
D
o you expect this recession to be over by 2013? Will property
development and investment continue to prove viable over the long
term? Are the average new building rates during the past quarter
century sustainable during the next 25 years?
If your answer to any of those questions was yes, you should be planning
now for the future. So say Ward Design, one of the larger architectural and
town planning practices in the country.
In order to take advantage of the recovery, Ward Design is encouraging
their clients to act now. With land deals available both from the private
sector and from the lending institutions, and a planning system under less
pressure than it has been, there is a window of opportunity now which may
not return for a generation.
In times of crisis or difficulty we all turn to reliable, trustworthy
experienced advisors. Having been in business since 1990 Ward Design has
been through difficult periods before, and has encountered just about every
difficulty imaginable in development. They have successfully dealt with
difficult sites, awkward planning problems, traffic and access issues, funding,
yield, storey height, title troubles and many other development obstacles.
They have earned a reputation for pragmatic, commercially-minded
problem solving, and for not accepting no for an answer.
The result of the approach taken by Ward Design has been consistently
significantly better returns on investment for their clients. In many cases
adding 25 per cent more floorspace to schemes previously designed by
others, without compromising the value or salability of the scheme.
Ward Design has been heeding its own advice and preparing for recovery.
They have opened new offices in Belfast recently. They are also picking up
new business across GB, and have good relationships with a number of the
City of London investment houses, who are aggressively buying property
again.
