Real Estate and Planning
Every day we are influenced by the built environment around us. Offices, shops, industrial buildings, houses and the surrounding countryside all have an impact on the quality of our lives.
Have you ever wondered how those properties are developed, how much they are worth or who is responsible for managing them? Are you interested in how towns or cities develop or how decisions are made about new housing schemes, transport systems and leisure facilities?
