Kinney Green rent review London specialists have successfully concluded negotiations on behalf of Kucher & Partners at 1 Plough Place in London’s Mid-Town market. The outcome followed detailed market analysis and complex discussions with the landlord, demonstrating the value of expert Kinney Green rent review London advice.
Neil Warwick, who leads the Kinney Green Mid-Town Agency Department, originally acquired the space for Kucher & Partners in 2011. The firm remains a long-standing client of Kinney Green. This existing relationship allowed the team to provide consistent advice and continuity throughout the rent review process. The team also drew on historic knowledge of the building and previous negotiations.
The area surrounding 1 Plough Place has changed significantly in recent years. The adjacent New Street Square development transformed the local environment, and the completion of New Fetter Place increased competition for office space. Strong market movement across the Holborn area added further pressure. These factors made the rent review particularly challenging and required careful analysis of comparable evidence.
The landlord initially served notice at £542,000 per annum, representing a proposed increase of 40 percent. Kinney Green carried out detailed analysis of market transactions across the Mid-Town area and reviewed the lease provisions in detail. This approach allowed them to challenge assumptions used to support the higher figure, showcasing the expertise of Kinney Green rent review London specialists.
Following negotiations, the parties agreed a rent of £483,000 per annum. This outcome delivered a significant saving for Kucher & Partners, representing an overall saving of £295,000 over the next five years. The result highlights the importance of working with specialists experienced in complex rent review negotiations.
Mark Billige, Managing Partner at Kucher & Partners, praised the long-standing relationship with Neil Warwick and the Kinney Green team. He also highlighted their knowledge of the local market and practical support throughout the process.
