Vail Williams’ team of commercial property experts in Southampton has been strengthened to meet increasing demand and powerful business growth.

Vail Williams’ confidence to reinforce its expert and experienced line-up provides more evidence of the continued upswing in the property sector in the Solent region and the UK economy more widely.

A new recruit joining Vail Williams’ Southampton office is Associate Marie Newman, who brings with her 20 years’ knowledge and experience of valuing commercial property, residential land and investments.

Marie comes from CBRE where she was Associate Director. She knows the Solent area well, having moved to the south coast in the mid-1990s.

In addition to Marie’s appointment, Vail Williams’ Southampton office has also made a series of promotions. Ben Christian becomes Planner, while Mike Greenwood (Valuation) and Russell Miller (Law of Property Act Receivership) both move up to Partner.

The appointment and promotions are among a clutch of changes at senior and junior levels boosting Vail Williams’ offices in Guildford, Crawley, Reading, Southampton and London.
