A tailored Environmental Risk Guide for property professionals
The fourth edition (2024 update) of our popular pocket-sized guide is tailored primarily for land and property investors, surveyors and related professionals working across the built environment sector - including lenders, project managers, architects and planners.
Designed to give professionals a concise understanding of property-related environmental risks, it is a handy reference tool to enable them to navigate environmental liability complexities.
Our Transaction Advisory, Development and Environmental Management and teams have trusted advisor relationships with a wealth of leading investors, developers, and real estate landlords and we understand the challenges that environmental issues can present throughout the investment, purchase, ownership, operation, management and divestment of property in the UK.
Presented in a concise, easy-to-understand format, the guide provides readers with quick and easy access to headline environmental topics including legislation, waste management, climate change, biodiversity and emerging risks.
In this user-friendly guide, 40+ years of expertise are distilled into quick reference summaries, non-technical explanations, clear direction on items to consider, and practical next steps to enable professionals to more confidently navigate a wide range of environmental matters.
