FAQs

What kind of clients does the commercial property team work with?

Our commercial property agents have successfully helped different clients achieve their goals. These include businesses seeking advice on lease events, expansion and relocation opportunities, advising developers on market trends and scheme appraisals, investors wanting to build their portfolio and public sector organisations requiring comprehensive consultancy.

Can you help find new commercial units?

We work with property owners to list their commercial spaces, and bring together buyers and sellers to ensure the best outcome for everybody involved. Our work involves acting on behalf of both landlords and occupiers, and we're positioned as one of the leading agents in the region.

What types of commercial property can Cheffins help with?

We advise on a broad range of commercial property, including shops and retail units, offices and workspaces, laboratory, R&D and high-tech space, industrial units and warehouses, investment property, schools, nurseries and educational property, development land, and leisure and hospitality property.

If you cannot find a suitable property among the current listings, register your requirements with our commercial team. We can then contact you when relevant properties become available.

Do you act for landlords and tenants, or only for buyers and sellers?

Yes. Cheffins acts for both landlords and tenants on commercial leases, and for buyers and sellers on freehold sales. Our commercial agency team handles lettings and disposals across offices, industrial units, retail and leisure premises. Where a lease is already in place, our lease consultancy team advises on rent reviews, lease renewals and dilapidations for either side.

Can you value commercial property as well as sell and let it?

Cheffins has RICS-registered valuers who prepare formal commercial valuations for secured lending, tax and probate, financial reporting, and dispute resolution. Valuations are prepared to RICS Red Book standards and are accepted by lenders and HMRC. The team values offices, industrial units, retail premises, land and investment portfolios across Cambridgeshire and the surrounding counties.

We are relocating to Cambridge from overseas. Can you advise on commercial real estate here?

Yes. Cheffins advises incoming occupiers on what the UK market calls commercial property and North American clients call commercial real estate. For life sciences and technology businesses, that usually means lab-enabled and R&D space on the established Cambridge parks. Our team has acted on requirements at Granta Park and Chesterford Research Park, and on the Raspberry Pi relocation.

Which towns and business parks do you cover?

Cheffins covers Cambridge, Ely, Newmarket, Haverhill, Saffron Walden and Royston from six regional offices. We are regularly instructed on space at Copley Hill Business Park, Lancaster Way Business Park, Potter Space Ely, Cambourne Business Park, Haddenham Business Park, Elean Business Park, One Granta Park and Chesterford Research Park.
