With over 10 years experience as a commercial property agent at a large firm of London Chartered Surveyors, James set up his own business in October 1998 with the vision of developing an information exchange and resource centre specifically for office movers. James was one of the first to use the Internet as a platform to offer corporate occupiers access to market information, and this approach has proved popular with both corporate clients and other property consultants as an alternative to the traditional route of forms, contracts and agents.
