As one of the UK’s leading firms of Chartered Surveyors in our field, we offer over 50 years’ expertise in advising developers in the acquisition of land and property.
Based in the Northwest of England, we are committed to providing the most professional, dynamic and commercially sound service to our clients all over the UK. Fisher German Priestner Limited, known as FGP, was set up to act as specialist Chartered Surveyors in the utilities and infrastructure market. FGP brought together Fisher German LLP, a well established firm of Chartered Surveyors and Claire Priestner who has specialised in infrastructure and utilities for most of her 20 year career as a Chartered Surveyor. FGP has now stepped away from the Fisher German umbrella and operates as a standalone business with an ethos that revolves around representing the developer rather than the landowner.
FGP are rural practice Chartered Surveyors and, although also advising in commercial property situations the core expertise is valuation, negotiation and settlement for the acquisition of rights across agricultural, equestrian and amenity land throughout the British Isles. The business developed in the gas, oil, electricity and water industries. More recently this has extended into the energy industries of solar, wind and gas storage & extraction.
and ISO9001 and ISO14001 accredited, we manage a friendly and successful operation that is well recognised within its industry and community. FGP staff are qualified in their disciplines and provided with training programmes to maintain their qualifications. FGP provide Health and Safety training for staff and all the necessary protective equipment to comply with site policies. Support for staff includes maintaining a work life balance within a demanding workplace and pension provision for retirement.
Our aim is simple: to keep growing as the voice of authority in the industries we serve, and to continue to provide the best possible support to our high calibre clients.
We also feel it important to give something back to the community, supporting local charities with both financial assistance and with our time where we spend a couple of hours every Friday supporting the local community. Fisher German Priestner is proud to support many other local charities as a "silent giver".
Through every step of the process, we are focussed on delivering the best results for our clients. Thanks to our personal approach, a massive 90% of land agreements managed by Fisher German Priestner are signed voluntarily.
Our offices are in the historical town of Knutsford in Cheshire. Conveniently located near the M6 and M56 motorways, Manchester Airport and with direct rail links from nearby Manchester to all major cities, we are ideally situated to meet with clients and third parties all over the UK. With top specification meeting and conference facilities and free parking, our HQ also provides an excellent site for our clients as and when they need it.
