We manage occupational leases, rent reviews, breaks, rent deposits and dilapidations, collect rent, service charges and insurance, and chase arrears. We also oversee facilities, building insurance and commercial agents, advise on planning and sustainability, and run full accounting, including service charge reconciliation, VAT and income distribution.
A Director is your senior contact, supported by the Maritime HQ team in Richmond, who know each building in detail. We deal with tenants, agents and contractors in the UK and bring the decisions that matter back to you, so the family directs the strategy while we handle the execution.
Yes. We bought The Marlowes in Hemel Hempstead, an 80-plus unit centre with a 1,200-space car park, for £7m in 2025, when it was producing £850,000 a year. It now produces £1.5m a year and is valued at £16m. At Broad Street in Newtown, we created a large single unit let to New Look on a 10-year term, which anchored the centre and drew in other retailers.
Paul Street in London, between Liverpool Street and Old Street, was once the ugly duckling of our portfolio. We rejected a costly Cat A+ fit-out and spent £400,000, around £23 psf, on the façade and common areas instead. Three tenants renewed, two for five years and one for ten, and a new ground-floor letting lifted the rent roll to £530,000 a year.
At Singer Street, when sole tenant Made.com collapsed, we switched to a multi-let strategy with a £300,000 reception upgrade aimed at film and TV post-production. Splice took three of the six floors on a 10-year lease, and the building is now almost fully let on long leases.
