We provide specialist compensation and valuation advice where properties suffer an interference with their rights to light. We advise local authorities, developers and property owners in respect of the use of Appropriation (s.203 powers), including engagement with affected parties and the negotiation of the compensation payable.
We are also experienced in assessing compensation where a share of developer’s profit is sought under the negotiated damages route, working with Rights to Light consultants to assess the increase in value and profit generated from an interference with a right to light.
Our Services
Release of Rights & Negotiated Damages
We provide specialist valuation advice for negotiated damages claims relating to interference with a right to light. Working with Rights to Light consultants, we review cutback assessments and modelling to undertake an assessment of the increase in developer’s profit and land value gain as a consequence of the interference. We are experts in this area, having prepared expert evidence for court hearings.
S.203 Powers & Appropriation
We advise both owners and developers on the interference with Rights of Light where the appropriation of land is used to trigger the protection of Section 203 Housing and Planning Act 2016. Our expert advice is used to set compensation budgets, engage with affected parties, and assess compensation for the reduction in the value to property where injuries occur.
