how we can help

Olden Property is a firm of chartered surveyors and RICS-registered valuers, specializing in assisting individuals affected by compulsory purchase. Director Tom Olden personally manages every case, providing a single point of contact and consistent guidance throughout the entire process. From the outset, Tom clearly explains all key aspects of the process, ensuring that any confusion is removed. Homeowners and small businesses deserve the same level of valuation and negotiation expertise as larger institutions—a principle Tom is deeply committed to upholding, ensuring his clients always receive a fair outcome.

If you are facing compulsory purchase, it’s crucial to seek expert advice early so you fully understand your rights, including your rights to object and compensation. Importantly, the costs of professional advice should be covered by the council or developer, not by you. If we are instructed to represent you, we will ensure that the council or developer confirms in writing that they will cover all surveying and legal fees before any work begins. Tom is already working with several leaseholders on the Ham Close estate, helping them secure full compensation and guidance on reinvesting in the new development. For an initial consultation, please contact Tom today for a free-of-charge consultation on your situation.

Regeneration in richmond

The regeneration of Ham Close is a redevelopment project aimed at revitalizing the heart of Richmond. This initiative hopes to improve housing quality but also enhance community facilities, green spaces, and infrastructure, making Ham Close a more vibrant and sustainable place to live.

Over 400 existing homes will be replaced with new, energy-efficient housing, offering current residents improved living conditions while addressing the housing shortage in the area. Current tenants and leaseholders of Ham Close have the opportunity to continue to be part of the Ham Close community, with options for shared ownership and buy-back schemes available.

While it’s hard to dispute the intentions behind the Richmond regeneration scheme, it is crucial that homeowners who may lose their properties for these developments receive proper advice and fair compensation. Olden Property is currently assisting several homeowners impacted by this projects, particularly regarding property valuation and their rights to compensation.
