Client Representation
At Saffery Read, we act on behalf of our clients to protect their interests and ensure the smooth delivery of property-related projects and ongoing management.
Our client representation services are tailored to private homeowners, estate owners, and property investors who require expert oversight and trusted support throughout any stage of property ownership or development.
We liaise directly with consultants, contractors, local authorities, and other stakeholders to manage the complexities of projects — from renovations and refurbishments to long-term maintenance and compliance. Whether representing a single residence, a portfolio of city properties, or a rural estate, our role is to ensure transparency, efficiency, and high standards of delivery on your behalf.
With over 30 years' experience in heritage properties, listed buildings, and high-value homes, our team bring a balanced, informed, and discreet approach to every client relationship.
Historic Buildings
With over 25 years' experience in dealing with historic and listed buildings, we are well placed to advise on all aspects of their conservation and preservation. Many of our completed projects are listed and required a sensitive approach to retain their historic significance whilst updating them to be suitable to modern life and continued enjoyment.
We have carried out full surveys on many historic buildings and overseen the restoration, renovation and significant extension of Grade I, II and II* properties. We can offer advice on their condition, rectification of defects, assistance with restoration and renovation work as well as advice on listed building consent and planning permission.
Maintenance
At Saffery Read, we offer Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) surveys as a proactive and practical way to manage the long-term care of your residential property.
Our surveys involve a thorough inspection and assessment of your property’s condition, helping to highlight any potential issues before they become costly problems. By developing a clear maintenance plan, usually spanning 5 to 10 years, we help you budget more effectively, minimise unexpected repair costs, and ensure your property is well maintained for the future.
