LSH’s Southampton-based office agency secured 14 deals in the city involving 57,090ft of space throughout 2017 – more than double the area transacted by its nearest rival, which was credited with 28,500 sq ft in nine deals.

LSH also topped the industrial dealmaker table, transacting 10 deals against two from its nearest rivals.

The listing follows LSH’s success in the 2017 Estates Gazette Awards, in which its South Coast office was named Most Active Agent in the South for the 11^th year running, outstripping its nearest competitor by more than 40 deals.

The high level of activity in Southampton reflects the team’s extensive knowledge and expertise of the region’s market, and our commitment to finding occupiers that perfectly suit the needs of our valued clients.”
