These services are rooted in a deep understanding of commercial leasing, placemaking, and tenant mix strategy. Regulated by the RICS, Forty Group provides objective and commercially informed advice to developers, landlords, and managing agents across the full lifecycle of retail and mixed-use schemes.

​

We advise on marketing strategies and pre-letting campaigns, supported by strong tenant and agency networks across both the branded and independent sectors. Our experience spans institutional funds, private landlords, social housing providers, and local authorities, giving us the flexibility to support schemes of all scales and tenures.

​

We work in tandem with planners, architects, and legal teams to ensure every stage from shell handover to opening is commercially robust and aligned with occupier expectations. ​​ We regularly assist in soft market testing during the planning and delivery stages, ensuring that tenant mix is achievable, realistic and reflects current market appetite.

 

Our tenant engagement is grounded in real-time market intelligence and a practical understanding of what occupiers need - from design and compliance to operational setup. Through early input and strategic advice, we help reduce void periods, increase letability and protect long-term asset value.

​

We view sales and marketing not as standalone activities but as integral parts of the overall placemaking journey, supporting successful tenant integration and delivering the right offer for the end user.
