KEY TAKEAWAYS If you work closely with an architect, and build a rapport with them, you can establish the level of expertise they have in your area and how they can best benefit you. Planning advice can be hugely impactful, so make sure you get qualified advice from someone you trust and who has you best interests at heart. Consultants can sometimes fail to see the potential in your site. Every cubic foot of space has the potential to maximise revenue. Creativity matters. If you have never engaged in a new build, then start with something with planning permission. You'll realise the gains from the uplift in value post-development. Brown field sites should come later. BEST MOMENTS 'There is a degree of design that comes into this' 'My niche is spatial awareness' 'The key is in exceeding the brief, and that does take time and effort. It also takes passion as well' 'It's really important that your designer is not an "instruction taker"' VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591 Adrian Bellingham - Covest Architecture - [email protected] Call Adrian on 01158226570 ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.
