Welcome to the Real Estate Grapevine

18th July 2012 | Posted by Real Estate Grapevine Limited on Commercial Real Estate, Executive Office Space, Introduction, Welcome / Tagged: Commercial, Executive Office Space, Grapevine, Opinion, Real Estate, Real Estate Grapevine | 0 comments

I have worked in the executive office field since late 2003, with the largest provider of these services. I have worked in an operational capacity as well as in a sales environment. I have worked for the firm across two countries, and sold into a multitude. Prior to this, I worked in the hospitality field in Europe and the US. I had a brief 2 year sabbatical working in corporate services negotiating leases and project managing an office build out. Across these 10-15 years in industry, I feel that I have developed a perspective on commercial real estate and the executive suite/ office industry that I want to share. I’m not certain that my perspective will  be incredibly unique, but it is one that some may find of interest.

I feel at times that the executive suite industry is a little misunderstood, and while many business people out there get it; there are plenty that don’t, and I hope that this blog will enlighten those that need to know, and further inform those that already know. There are many facets to this industry, one or two misnomers and a lot of assumptions, that I feel is pertinent, at this time of global uncertainty to dispel.

I see that as time passes this blog may evolve; as my ever growing understanding of real estate develops. The founding principles of this idea, was to share real estate potential leads as I hear them. This may no longer be the case, but if I pick up news, I will share… However, since further thought and discussion on this idea has evolved, I feel more compelled to share my opinion on the commercial real estate and executive suite sector, to inform those that don’t get it as much.

I will endeavour to take a non-biassed opinion on the sector, and advise accordingly. I am under no impression that my opinion will be gospel, it is merely an opinion, and you can either take it or leave it. I am also under no false illusion that the 9 years I have been in this industry, is enough to have a better opinion than another, as mentioned, it is simply my opinion. No one has goaded me, no one is driving my opinion, and I gain no financial compensation for this opinion, as mentioned, I simply wish to share my thoughts, and in turn, better serve my clients and prospects, so that they are happy and content in the office space that I have sold them.

So there it is; the grapevine, hopefully this will be an informative learning experience for all of us.

Regards.

Do forgive us for the following post, and using th Do forgive us for the following post, and using this forum which we’d strongly resist typically. But our MD, off the back of the recent news of lockdown version 2, felt compelled to write to his constituent MP James Gray, to ask for his support in allowing gyms and fitness facilities to remain open during the lockdown. To be transparent, much of our trade, of late, has been focused on Gym/ fitness facilities, but it equally hasn’t escaped our notice that the healthier and fitter we are, the better we stand in beating any covid infections, before a vaccine is available, (and frankly, what’s wrong with being fitter and healthier anyway?) We don’t know!🤷‍♂️

Anyhow, we’d appreciate it greatly if anyone who feels the same way, perhaps could share this post using the tag: #stayfittofightthevirus, and see if we can’t garner a change of heart for this industry and for all of us as a whole. Even better still would be if you would contact your local MP also to spur the movement.

Here’s hoping it will help, this is the one and only time we’ll use this platform for a political post, but we hope you understand. Many thanks, Real Estate Grapevine Team.
First time back in London last week since the lock First time back in London last week since the lockdown, and we felt it important to pay a visit to the guys @nysawine to see how the second site was coming along... oh, and to stock up to of course!

Onwards and upwards!
