BOLLAND REAL ESTATE LIMITED

What BOLLAND REAL ESTATE LIMITED does

Bolland Real Estate Limited is a UK private limited company established in 2025 and headquartered in the North West of England, operating as a sole-practitioner boutique consultancy delivering specialist commercial property lease advisory services. The firm is founded and operated by Dulcie Bolland, a chartered surveyor with over 20 years of lease advisory experience gained at Avison Young (Director, Lease Advisory, 2012–2025) and BNP Paribas Real Estate (Associate Director, Lease Advisory, 2004–2012), among earlier roles at Smith Young Partnership and Lambert Smith Hampton.

The firm offers three integrated advisory services: rent reviews, lease renewals, and lease regears, delivered across all commercial property sectors. Rent review work covers market research, lease review, negotiation, and dispute resolution including preparation of expert reports and arbitration representation. Lease renewals work addresses security of tenure under the Landlord and Tenant 1954 Act, notice requirements, market rent assessment, term negotiations, and PACT advisory where the renewal becomes contentious. Regears cover renegotiation of existing lease terms including extensions, break clause modifications, and term adjustments for both landlords and tenants.

Revenue is generated through professional advisory fees on a project or engagement basis, with pricing quoted per mandate rather than publicly disclosed. Client acquisition is relationship-driven and referral-based, targeting commercial property landlords and tenants across the North West. The firm is RICS regulated, bootstrapped with no external funding, and operates with no proprietary technology platform.
