Services
Market Valuations
Our RICS-registered valuers provide accurate market valuations for GP premises using a combination of market and investment approaches. We draw on extensive national comparable evidence to ensure compliance with Red Book standards. These valuations are essential for partnership changes, tax purposes, and lease negotiations.
Notional Rent
We specialise in challenging and optimising NHS Current Market Rent assessments for GP practices. Our surveyors conduct site inspections and compare local evidence to identify appeal opportunities. Our success-based fee structure ensures payment only when we secure increased rental income.
Lease Creation
We draft NHS-compliant lease terms for new GP premises, ensuring market rent levels and value-for-money considerations. Our service includes property surveys, heads of terms preparation, and negotiation with tenants to secure optimal rental positions while maintaining NHS reimbursement eligibility.
Sale and Leaseback
We manage complete sale and leaseback transactions for GP practices, enabling equity release while maintaining occupancy. Our services include property valuation, investor marketing, bid qualification, and full transaction management through to completion.
Pharmacy Rent
We review and negotiate pharmacy rents for co-located premises, ensuring landlords receive market rates. Our performance-related fees mean no charge unless we secure rent increases, with access to a national database of pharmacy rental evidence.

Very poor service, communication and vfm. Switched to a small firm with much better results. Suggest you avoid GP Surveyors

Report
We have worked with GP Surveyors on many property transactions involving primary care premises where they provide the valuation and surveying advice and we provide the legal advice. Their expertise is extensive in all areas and their advice invaluable in helping clients navigate this specialist area both in terms of an in depth understanding of how the Premises Costs Directions work and how to navigate processes to achieve the best outcomes for clients. It is always a pleasure to work with them.

Report
We have worked with GP Surveyors on delivering finance training to NHS general practice colleagues on the subject of Notional Rent. The standard of the workshops delivered have been excellent with 100% positive feedback from delegates attending the events. The team at GP Surveyors have been fantastic also - very supportive and quick to come back on any queries we may have had. We are looking forward to continuing our work on these workshops with GP Surveyors.

Report
GP surveyors were excellent in pursuing a notional rent increase for us. They are tenacious and determined to get the best deal and I am very happy with the results of their work for us.We had previously used local estate agents to act on our behalf when negotiating with the district valuer but now realise that the detailed knowledge GP surveyors have means they achieve a much higher rent and more than justify their fees. I would highly recommend them.
