A MOMENT WITH

Mark Capanda

Role

Associate Director, Lease Advisory Specialist. Joined LM 2023.

Responsibilities

I am a lease advisory specialist advising on major UK shopping centres, working closely with investors and institutions. I am a specialist in central London, representing Boots, and restructuring leases to unlock redevelopment and asset management opportunities. In addition to my client work, I am proud to be a champion of equality in the property sector, serving on the RICS Diversity Panel, participating in conference panels, and contributing to the industry press. My client relationships include Cabot Circus, Westquay, and Victoria Leeds.

Industry Perspective

With shifting consumer habits and evolving occupier needs, lease flexibility and asset repositioning are more critical than ever. Unlocking value now requires balancing short-term returns with long-term resilience across retail, leisure, and hospitality within mixed-use urban regeneration projects.

What’s exciting in the sector, right now

The health and fitness world is transforming – hybrid workouts, wellness-focused lifestyles, and personalised, inclusive experiences. Fitness is no longer just about exercise; gyms are now vibrant social hubs where community, mental health, nutrition, and recovery take centre stage. Think clubs like Saucony Run Club, fitness challenges such as Hyrox, and cycle clubs like Rapha Cycle Clubhouse – all shaping how we connect with brands we love.
