Our Land & Commercial Valuation Services

At Meller Speakman, we have considerable experience with many types of land and commercial property valuations. As chartered land valuers and land surveyors, we work to the strict professional guidelines laid down by the RICS to ensure that your valuation is compliant and accurate. 

Commercial Land Valuations

We have considerable experience all over the North West in commercial land development. With our extensive market experience going back many years, we can advise you on property development feasibility for all types of situations.

Development Land

Residential property development starts with a land valuation to check the financial viability and feasibility of a project. Again, we have extensive experience of ‘what if’ situations like this and can be relied upon to offer the best advice based on our experience of residential development land values all over the region.

’Without hesitation, I introduced Peter to a client who required advice in respect of settlement of an overage payment with a national housebuilder. Peter prioritised this valuation and the subsequent settlement negotiations were done confidently and diligently resulting in a significant increase in the overage payable to the client.’’
