Record year for chartered surveyors

Bromwich Hardy

Increasing demand for commercial property across Coventry and Warwickshire has helped drive trade to record levels for a firm of chartered surveyors.

Bromwich Hardy, based at Middlemarch Business Park, Coventry has seen its most successful year since being founded in 2008

The company employs 10 staff and has recently appointed Andrew Cosnett as a partner specialising in the industrial/logistics sector. Mr Cosnett, who has been active in the Midlands industrial and logistics agency market for almost 40 years, was formerly Midlands Head of Industrial and Logistics for BNP Paribas Real Estate.

Additionally, James Brookes and Richard Sidaway have both qualified as Chartered surveyors, having successfully completed their Assessments of Professional Competence. Their success brings to six, the firm’s roster of fully qualified chartered surveyors

Co-founder Tom Bromwich said: “There is no question that the success of the Coventry and Warwickshire economy means that there is increased demand and it has been an exceptional year for the business with some landmark deals, great successes and we have just appointed a new Partner.

“Just last week the area saw investments of more than £200m in two projects – and both of those will drive demand in the supply chain which is not only good for the commercial property industry but also the economy of the area.”

The firm has completed deals ranging from the sale of student housing investments to major lettings on industrial and office parks across the region, as well as picking up a raft of high-profile appointments including the sale of Kings High School in Warwick and a major new office development at Abbey Park, Stoneleigh.

Richard Hardy, who co-founded the firm with Bromwich, added: “We are confident that the next 12 months will be equally successful both for the region and for Bromwich Hardy.

“We have a very strong team in place, are able to offer a wider range of services than ever before, and are operating in a very buoyant region of the UK.”
