Case Study : Investment Property

I have acted for Ackleton Estates Limited for a couple of years, and have helped them with a number of acquisitions.

This site is in a prime location in Shrewsbury, and was purchased in 2020. Formerly a disused shop, it is currently being converted by Ackleton Estates into quality residential accommodation and a ground floor coffee shop. It really is great to be able to assist with the regeneration of brownfield sites:

Work is underway to the installation of the coffee shop, and I’m looking forward to having a drink in there when it is finished.  Here is what my client had to say

“John’s commitment and attention to detail on the purchase of this project was exceptional. His knowledge and communication during the transaction left us feeling totally reassured.”

James Austin, Director of Ackleton Estates Limited
Property – 40 Wyle Cop, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

I have worked with various Legal Practices over the last few years on different Property transactions. Having just completed my most recent Property deal using John McLean I have to say that the detail and clarity he provided throughout the process has been ‘’head and shoulders’’ above any of the previous Law firms I have worked with. I would have no hesitation on using his legal expertise on future projects.

John is a first class Solicitor who we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending.  He was thorough, professional and pushed to get our transaction through as quickly as possible.  He was always at the end of the phone or an email if we needed him.  A great bloke and a top notch solicitor!  We will without a doubt be calling on him should we ever have any commercial legal issues that need sorting.

John McLean acted for Laugherne Park Management Services Ltd in a matter with the Land Registry. The work was detailed, complex and lengthy and John, by his diligence and application, reached a suitable resolution point for all the multiple properties involved. Of particular note was his provision of progress statements which assisted greatly in the understanding of all concerned.
