“An independant agency for individual needs”

Profile

After 20 successful years working for various commercial agencies throughout London and gaining over 1,000 transactions completed, I decided it was time to create my own commercial agency. The aim was to expand my network of existing clients but more importantly, to promote, advice and encourage new businesses to include new landlords in offering the necessary information needed to understand more about Landlord & Tenant law.

Lim Commercial was set up to offer an exclusive and independent service to a broad range of clients.

Whether you are a start-up company looking to take on your first commercial lease or an experienced landlord requiring advice on market conditions, Lim Commercial promises to provide the necessary information and advice needed for you to make the right commercial decision.

We have been working with Ian successfully for many years and have no hesitation in providing a testimonial. Ian provides essential services when we are letting our commercial units and has always vetted applicants and found us good honest tenants. Where as larger companies will tell you what they can achieve and then give you reasons for why they failed to meet their targets, Ian provides a realistic expectation from day one and has always met or exceeded the target agreed. Ian is someone who wants to develop long term relationships, not one off jobs, and that is so important when you are looking for someone to support you in the world of property sales or letting. Ian has a wealth of knowledge which was of great assistance to us in the early days and even now we would never think of taking a major decision without seeking his input first. We would highly recommend Ian Your job position: +447811946744

Your name: Paul Green Your testimonial: I first met Ian back in 2011 when he came to the rescue due to a tenant unexpectedly terminated a lease early. It was a difficult situation at the time as the chances of finding a new tenant quickly were slim due to a lot of stock on the market. Ian not only found a buyer but one prepared to pay a premium. The benefit of that deal is still felt today. Since then, Ian has assisted/negotiated on other property matters in the SE1 area and his attention to detail and reliability is first class. I can not recommend recommend him more highly. Your job position: MD

Your name: Claire Forbes Your testimonial: I met Ian Lim several years ago when he let my property in SE1. He found me excellent tenants in no time at all and was a pleasure to deal with. In the intervening years I have had cause to call Ian several times for advice and he has always been more than willing to share his tremendous knowledge of the commercial market. When it came to re-let the property post Covid lock-down Ian again soon found very good tenants. This time the negotiation was more complex and Ian handled this with great tenacity and dedication to detail, spending a great deal of time in communication with me and with the agents on the other side. I could not have done it without his help and support. Ian is an absolute pleasure to deal with and as long as he is around he will always have my business. I would recommend Lim Commercial to anyone looking for expert help in the world of commercial property. Claire Forbes Your job position: Private Landlord

Claire Forbes

Your name: Antoinette TAYLOR at Taylor Bridge Legal Ltd Your testimonial: Despite using an established commercial letting agency- our commercial premises remained vacant for some 20 months. We met Ian Lim of Lim Commercial Lettings in February 2022, and by March 2022, he had more than delivered. Ian Lim had promptly organised and managed the refurbishment of our premises, and actively and efficiently marketed the premises and achieved an offer in prompt time. Ian Lim gave all of his expert time to understanding us as landlords, and to deliver. He is honest, conscientious and will evidently go above and beyond the call of duty of any commercial letting agent to achieve the desired result. We will never go to any other Commercial Letting Agent, and even wish that he was able to undertake our residential lettings. We wholeheartedly recommend Lim Commercial lettings to anyone looking for an expert in this field. A choice of which they will never regret. Your job position: Director
