The Challenge
First rent review since initial letting, the rent was the highest restaurant rent in Glasgow when let, in addition to which the basement trading space had initially been rentalised at 75% of the value of the ground floor rental rate, despite convention suggesting 50%.

Significant increase in rent, well above client expectations and setting new Zone A rate for this micro location.
- Basement trading space valued at 75%
