Rapidly expanding Canadian property adviser Avison Young has bought out-of-town retail specialist Wilkinson Williams in its latest in a series of acquisitions.

It now plans to broaden Wilkinson Williams so it attacks all areas of the retail market and works more closely with its logistics team.

EG’s head of content David Hatcher spoke to Avison Young’s chairman and chief executive, Mark Rose; principal and UK managing director, Jason Sibthorpe and new principal and former Wilkinson Williams partner Miles Marten to discuss the drivers behind the move, the pressures of running a niche firm and the next business Avison Young is on the look out for.

Jonathan Seitler QC of Wilberforce Chambers returns to the fifth episode of The Agenda with the assertion that “rights of light is witchcraft”.

Setting out his case, he suggests seven key similarities between the ancient art and rights of light – including reference to the Bible and long-standing rules.

To debate this theory, Jonathan is joined by property litigator Emma Humphreys – a partner at Charles Russell Speechlys.

Together they discuss the value of injunctions, utility of specialist experts, calculation of damages, the complexity of the related law and what, ultimately, might replace it. Emma even brings a touch of magic to the proceedings.

In this Radius Data Exchange podcast , we talk to Knight Frank partner Tim Robinson and Gerald Eve senior partner Simon Pritchard about why the industry has decided that now is the time to start sharing data, what impact that will have on the market and what the future of the real estate consultancy world looks like.

In this latest Radius Data Exchange podcast, we talk to Liz Craig, managing partner of the commercial division at Bidwells and Andy Martin, the UK chief executive of BNP Paribas Real Estate, about how when it comes to delivering something really important for the the sector, the industry works best when it works togther.

Martin says the establishment of Radius Data Exchange was a necessary next step in the evolution of the consultancy world.

“We all saw that we were collecting our own data so thought wouldn't it be easier if we actually spent time looking at how we could create trends information, rather than on collecting the data,” says Martin. “Clients want to know what the data means, not what the data is. So in some respects that was the obvious place for us to fix.  The industry knows how to come together on important projects and this is just another way in which we can work together for common good.”
