The dental market in Brighton and Hove
Buying or selling in Brighton and Hove is often shaped by premises: city centre and seafront units are typically leasehold, frequently in period or conservation area buildings, with high values and tight space. With many lists skewing private, goodwill here is usually driven by the private book, the brand and patient loyalty rather than UDA volume. NHS commissioning sits with Sussex ICB. Buyers tend to be individuals and smaller groups after a quality private practice rather than NHS scale. A specialist will value the private goodwill properly and deal with the lease and any conservation issues early.

“Ours is a brand-led private practice and we needed that protected. The solicitor structured the sale and the covenants around exactly that.”

Dental solicitors in Brighton and Hove, answered
The goodwill leans on the private list, the brand and patient retention rather than NHS UDA volume, so a dental specialist will structure the sale and any restrictive covenants to protect those specifically.
They can be. Seafront and city centre units are usually leasehold and often in period or conservation buildings, so the lease term, consents and any alteration restrictions are worth checking early. Your matched lawyer will review the premises at the start.
