What do we do?
Our clients often comment, "we didn't know you did that."
Our consultancy work spans a wide spectrum, from conducting Socio and Economic Impact Assessments for transformative projects like the Granton Waterfront Regeneration to examining the ripple effects of policies such as the rent freeze on Scotland's housing market in collaboration with the British Property Federation (BPF).
Some examples
Ever wondered about the economic impact of pedestrianising a bustling street like George Street? As a Rettie researcher, you'd have the chance to contribute to projects like these. Our recent work includes Economic Impact Assessments for the George Street Pedestrianisation and the Granton Waterfront Regeneration, where our insights enabled £16.4m in funding to unlock a £1.3bn regeneration.
Working with our Build to Rent (BTR) and Land Teams, you'll be at the forefront of reviewing the viability of various Build to Rent schemes, providing data-led insights into rental values, market depth, absorption, and affordability analysis.
Shaping the Future
As the Scottish property sector undergoes dynamic changes, your role as a Rettie researcher becomes pivotal in conducting strategic reviews. Collaborate with housebuilders and local authorities to inform long-term strategies and optimise the use of held assets. Our expertise extends to policy guidance, where we assist in judicial reviews, planning policy assessments, and housing need evaluations, making a real impact on shaping the Scottish housing sector's future.
