Our People

Our people are the most important part of our business. The application of their considerable knowledge and skill enables us to provide our clients with a class-leading service.

The company is owned and run by four principals each of whom is a
Chartered Surveyor with over twenty years experience in the commercial property market.

We operate within four departments which together enable us to offer a
tightly integrated consultancy service.


Acquisitions & Development - Robert Stephens

Robert Stevens

"We work closely with our clients
to ensure that their assignments
are deliverable and will meet or exceed their expectations."

RS & Co advise on the identification and acquisition of land and buildings across the UK. We have an excellent track record in this field having acquired some of the UK's most prestigious sites on behalf of our motor trade clients.

We advise on the development and refurbishment of new and existing properties, offering guidance on overall project viability. We oversee the construction process from the appointment of the professional team, through design and planning to tendering, construction and commissioning, to deliver the project on time and on budget.

Paul Johnson

"We aim to improve the underlying value of our clients’ property
assets through proactive management."

We offer a full range of property management services, managing a portfolio of commercial and residential properties with a combined annual rent roll in excess of £30 million.

We adopt a pro-active approach, monitoring properties on a day to day basis and anticipating future issues rather than simply dealing with problems once they have arisen.

Professional - Richard Stephens

Richard Stevens

"Clients appreciate our attention
to detail and lack of complacency,
in particular the effort we put in to the final 5% of any negotiation to achieve the best possible result."

Our in-depth knowledge of the roadside and motor retail sectors enables us to deliver added value whether in the field of rent reviews and lease renewals, valuation advice or advice on rating assessments and Energy Performance Certificates.

We work closely with our other departments to provide topical, strategic thinking rather than adopting a purely academic approach.
