What our users are saying
“The Requirement List has fast become a highly-valued system, assisting our agency team in bolstering the range of known requirements and can be particularly helpful for trickier sites and properties we’re involved with.”
Adam PatrickManaging Partner, ESHPUser since 2016
“We have been using The Requirement List for over 10 years now, it’s simple and easy to use. It helps us check the latest requirements for national occupiers with contact details for acquisition surveyors or agents dealing with different regions. It also uncovers some less obvious opportunities with smaller businesses targeting specific locations.”
David MarsdenCo-Founder, Park Place RetailUser since 2016
“The Requirement List gives the team a useful starting point when assessing demand for an area, in a variety of category types, but also for our occupier clients, in reviewing locations for occupier clients using the demographics tools”.
Ben TaylorDirector, SpaceUser since 2016
