As part of our continued drive to be at the forefront of the property market, we’ve redesigned our Argyll SiteSolutions reports. These reports continue to provide expert insight and bespoke recommendations, retaining a higher level of clarity and the optional consideration of climate risk.
In collaboration with the UK’s leading law firms, three of Argyll’s environmental SiteSolutions and FloodSolutions reports have been redesigned to improve usability and provide clearer guidance. These renowned and trusted reports go beyond mere data, offering expert analysis and advice to help real estate lawyers, and their clients proceed with confidence and certainty.
Landmark’s Commercial Property Trends Report provides insights into the commercial property transaction pipeline across England, Wales and Scotland.
Our data for Q2 2025 reveals that completions cooled and transaction volumes slowed in the second quarter of 2025 following a stamp duty-fuelled surge in March – despite record levels of stock and more competitive mortgage rates.
Following the launch of our latest commercial real estate report – AI and climate change: risk, challenges, rewards – Elizabeth Jarvis, Landmark’s Legal and Search Divisional Director, outlines some of the key findings from discussions with real estate lawyers.
Climate change is reshaping our environment, and the property market must consider its long-term impact. Landmark now includes a Climate Change module in EnviroSearch Residential and RiskView Residential, ensuring comprehensive environmental due diligence.
As Argyll celebrates its 21st birthday, we reflect on our journey from inception to becoming a leader in environmental risk assessments. Founded by Simon Boyle and his colleagues, Argyll started with a vision to create high-quality environmental reports.
Following the publication of the Law Society’s Climate Change Risk Property Practice Note, we spoke to two of its contributors, Simon Boyle, environmental lawyer, and Robert Lee, Professor of Law at the University of Birmingham, for their take on what this means for conveyancers.
Understanding and implementing sustainability measures is not only about fulfilling regulatory requirements but also about demonstrating corporate responsibility, enhancing your firm’s reputation, and meeting the growing expectations of clients and employees alike.
While climate change is global in scale, there are also highly localised environmental impacts that threaten our cities, buildings, and communities. Climate change affects every industry as well as how we work and live. Concerns around climate have gained more importance when understanding and addressing related risks during property transactions.
The commercial property market is a fast-paced and complex sector that demands precision, clarity, and actionable environmental due diligence powered by expert knowledge. Landmark has long been the trusted partner for conveyancers and solicitors seeking reliable environmental searches, and now, we’re raising the bar once again.
The Law Society’s sustainability guidance has advanced the property industry towards net zero targets. However, navigating this complex area requires more than regulatory guidance. Chris Loaring, Managing Director for Landmark Legal, emphasises the importance of expert advice in assessing future risks and setting policies.
