Sunderland Fixture For Region's Property Show

Sunderland’s Stadium of Light is to host the North’s biggest commercial property show in 2009.

The Tyne and Wear Commercial Property Show – organised by inward investment agency Tyne and Wear Development Company - will take place at the football club on Thursday March 19.

The event brings together the region’s leading property professionals, developers, local authorities and a raft of business support organisations to provide expert advice and support on commercial property in Tyne and Wear.

Local firms attending the show can tap into the latest information on investment opportunities, available sites, details of the rental market, how to finance property deals and business support services.

With just under two months to the show, companies interested in attending are encouraged to register their interest at www.commercialpropertyshow.co.uk or by phoning 0191 5169099.

Paul Buie manager of Tyne and Wear Development Company said: “For any business with a property requirement – whether it’s a property to rent or as an investment – this is the place to start your search.

“In the current climate, it is critical that businesses receive the best possible advice. There’s no doubt that commercial property activity has slowed in the downturn but firms still need property and there are still opportunities and incentives in the market. The property show is the best way to access all the support and services you need in one place.”

This year’s event also features a number of free workshops run by industry experts, Wardhadaway and Tenon, to provide additional support for investors in the current economic climate. Subjects covered include the legal and financial aspects of commercial property transactions.

A range of leading agents have already signed up for the show including: Atisreal, GL Hearn, Knight Frank and Lambert Smith Hampton.

Simon Haggie from Knight Frank’s Newcastle office, said: “The Tyne and Wear Commercial Property Show is the best established and most important commercial property event in the region. It allows us to showcase our latest property opportunities and provides an interface with the region's growing businesses.”
