Thomas Lister was formed in 2002 by experienced surveyors Chris Thomas and Rachel Lister who each have more than 20 years experience in property development.
Our aim has remained consistent – to provide quality, well researched advice and devise strategies that enable public and private sector property development and regeneration projects to become reality and help deliver successful projects.
Underpinned by a track record of delivery, our team combines chartered surveyors and planning consultants providing quality advice across a broad range of property consultancy services.
Our clients include national regeneration agency, Homes England, a wide range of Local Authorities and Combined Authorities as well as national property developers such as Stoford, Lovells, and Harworth.
Our expertise and reputation is in identifying innovative solutions to unlock the delivery of challenging and complex projects, many of which have often stalled following previous failed attempts to deliver.
Our pioneering and flexible approach has resulted in a national profile and a reputation for delivery. We are always seeking to make a positive difference by delivering change – whether this is through regeneration, new homes or employment opportunities.
Our success is attributable to our ethos to test, challenge and interrogate problems and identify appropriate solutions, utilising the skills and expertise from within our experienced team.
