Newsteer advised Ealing Limited on compulsory purchase compensation for interests at Villiers House acquired under the Crossrail Act 2008. The claim includes market value, income losses and injurious affection, with advice continuing while station works remain incomplete.
The client’s challenge
The acquisition affected retail units, the station ticket hall and a substantial part of the office podium, creating claims for market value, income loss and injurious affection.
Our solution
The advice considered the relationship between the land taken, trading and income impacts, and the effect on the retained asset rather than assessing each claim component in isolation.
Beyond advice: how we added value
Rather than treating cpo & compensation and expert witness as a standalone workstream, Newsteer connected it to the wider objectives for Villiers House, Ealing, helping the client assess risk and move forward with greater confidence.
Outcomes and impact
The compensation claim remains ongoing while Crossrail related works are incomplete. Outcome to confirm: agreed compensation and final settlement once the works conclude.
