As a Practice Manager or GP, you will be aware that in recent times the Department of Health have instigated major changes to procurement and style of premises. However, the funding is often elusive especially when you want to undertake your own project and there is a danger of GPs being sucked into projects led by the PCT or LIFT Co which are not always to their benefit.
Aitchison Raffety are experts in the field with a full knowledge of the NHS (GMS-Premises Costs) Directions plus the NHS Estates Code and other necessary guidance. We can help guide you through or around the pitfalls in all property matters. To venture into a property project without a chartered surveyor's advice is a little like undertaking an operation without an anaesthetist – extremely painful.
Full details of our services are listed down the right hand side of this page. In addition, take a look at our “Ask the Experts” section.

Aitchison Raffety undertake over 60 rent reviews for our clients every year. We are presently upgrading our data systems, which now enable us to analyse increases we are achieving at rent review. These figures may vary as we add to our data. Obviously each property is unique and if you are considering placing work with us, we urge you to contact us for a bespoke property analysis and assessment of the likely rent on review. The results are based on an average of 20-30 reviews being undertaken each year. The results for 2009 are incomplete and based on a smaller number of reviews, and we will update our results as the reviews are completed |
Make sure you get the most out of your existing premises where Aitchison Raffety will advise you on Notional Rent Reviews and Appeals, provide loan security and partnership valuations, give advice on extension and refurbishment.
