ACTIVITY within the commercial property market continues to gather pace in the North-East for Darlington-based Carver Commercial chartered surveyors property consultants.

“2015 was a successful year for us with more than 110 property deals completed for clients, and we have hit the ground running this year with both property requirements and services and professional valuation instructions,” said director Julie Wallin.

The company’s light industrial sector performed well last year, letting over 50,000sq ft of space, including a block of five units at Henson Court in Yarm Road Business Park for client Georgetown Victoria Limited.

“On behalf of the directors of Georgetown Victoria Limited, we would like to thank to Julie, Chris, Jack, Alison and Helen for all their hard work in securing tenants for all the units at Henson Court,” said director Rob Walker. “We look forward to working with the team on other opportunities in the future.”

Demand for investment property continues throughout the region. Carver Commercial recently listed a block of six trade units at Meynell Road, Darlington, and received considerable interest from investors throughout the country, resulting in a sale subject to contract after best and final bids.

Carver Commercial is also reporting increasing demand and interest from national investors who are focusing on the North-East region as being suitable for commercial investment properties.

Carver Commercial is an independent firm of chartered surveyors which offers a varied range of property services across the region. For further information, visit carvercommercial.com.
