Ian will be a real asset to GV&Co
Leeds-based property consultancy GV&Co is expanding its specialist lease advisory and asset management division, following the appointment of Ian Aghoghogbe.
Surveyor Ian, graduated in Real Estate from Nottingham Trent University and has moved to Leeds from Warwick to take up the role.
GV&Co director, Niall Mackinnon, who heads the company’s lease advisory and asset management division, said: “Since we launched this division three years ago it’s gone from strength to strength with us now advising on a diversity of high calibre, multi sector work for a range of clients. As a result, we were keen to appoint a graduate like Ian who has a real passion for property and a relevant degree qualification to support our growth.”
Ian said: “From my first interview I felt that GV&Co would be a good fit for me, as everyone was really genuine. Working daily alongside an experienced team of directors, in Niall and Tom Preene, who are continually mentoring me, I feel I am getting a real mix of general practice experience, which was a key attraction.”


The lease advisory and asset management division of GV&Co assists investors in maximising capital value of their assets and helps occupiers in generating occupational cost savings. It provides landlords and tenants with a wide range of services including rent reviews, lease renewals, expert witness reports, lease restructures, brokerage, agency, estates strategies, investment pricing and section 18 valuations for industrial and office properties.
The team has been involved with several well-known schemes in Leeds, including Wellington Place and Central Square.
