Geena Bains is a Senior Surveyor in Newsteer’s Development Consultancy team, helping clients understand whether development proposals are viable, where value can be created and how assumptions will stand up to scrutiny. She provides strategic viability and valuation advice across residential-led development, affordable housing and regeneration.
Geena’s work includes feasibility studies, development appraisals, financial modelling, affordable housing valuation and financial viability reviews for Registered Providers, councils and planning authorities. Her experience includes Bristol Temple Quarter, Mortgramit Square in Greenwich and Abbey House in Newham.
Geena looks beyond the model itself, connecting market evidence, planning requirements and development assumptions to the decisions clients need to make. Working closely with planning, development and client teams, she translates complex financial analysis into clear, defensible advice that supports negotiation, planning strategy and deliverable housing outcomes.
