News & Updates Providing TDD for a Multi-Let Office Acquisition!

By clearly setting out risks, costs, and responsibilities, we helped the client move quickly and confidently to secure a high-quality asset with a clear asset management strategy.

News & Updates Parri Thomas joins the colouring-in team! Parri Thomas joins the Black Cat Marketing Team (AKA:  Colouring-In Team) as a Digital Content Creator, bringing decades of experience in all things visual media. After graduating with a degree in Digital and Lens Media (ie. photography and film making) he found himself working at Hamerville Media Group, a magazine publisher and events organiser focusing primarily on the built environment, providing all their in-house photography and video needs: ranging from shooting more trade shows than he can remember, to ice climbing, pot holing and driving a van to Hanover on a single tank of diesel all in the name of creating varied and interesting content. Along side this, Parri was using his cameras to forge a career in the world of music and entertainment and, after being made redundant in 2016, went full time self employed. The following ten years saw him travel the world to shoot festivals, magazine editorials, and album artwork for the great and the good of the music world. He’s been published everywhere from shooting covers for the likes of The NME and The Big Issue to countless press clippings in most major newspapers. Post-pandemic Parri briefly hung up the cameras to follow a dream of running a bakery and started a doughnut business with a friend, which is still going strong. If you happen to be in Margate, or an Arsenal fan at the Emirates, be sure to buy a Bombo Doughnut. He promises they’ll change your life. After a couple of years of getting Bombo Doughnuts off the ground, Parri put down the apron and picked up his cameras again, and has now joined Black Cat Building Consultancy to bring his years of experience and trained eye creating varied and interesting visual content to Black Cat. ???? Parri says: “It’s always hard to tempt someone back from the world of self-employment but Black Cat Building Consultancy’s fully transparent business approach along with a ‘people-first’ ethos was too appealing to ignore. And the sheer variety of work I’ll be shooting is staggering. From architectural photography to cinematic drone videos to portraiture, I can’t see myself getting bored any time soon!” Outside of work, Parri lives in Margate with his partner and their rescue dog Terry. When not trying to wrestle fish out of the dog’s mouth on the beach, Parri enjoys eating out, having opinions about coffee, mountain biking, flying (and crashing and repairing) FPV drones and being lightly addicted to chess (even though he’s still not very good at it).

News & Updates Welcome to Black Cat, Antony Green! Antony joins us as an M&E Engineer, bringing a strong blend of hands-on delivery experience and real estate advisory expertise. He started his career with a family-owned building services contractor in Cambridge, learning the trade from the ground up, including time on the tools. That early experience shaped his practical understanding of M&E, which he later built on by qualifying as a Quantity Surveyor and spending several years in M&E contracting. A standout moment during this time was being part of the FM delivery team for the 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games at the Velodrome. More recently, Antony spent eight years with CBRE across London and Dublin, moving into building consultancy just before the pandemic. He now specialises in real estate advisory, with a focus on technical due diligence and dilapidations. His contracting background gives him a practical, delivery-led approach, helping clients find clear, workable solutions. Antony says: “Black Cat’s straightforward, non-corporate approach was a key draw. Having been based in Ireland for the past three years, I’m excited to be supporting Sean Doherty and Eamonn Cregan in continuing to grow the business locally.” He also brings a strong focus on ESG, supporting clients to improve energy performance and future-proof their assets. Outside of work, life currently revolves around his young son and his cockapoo, Arlo. He enjoys travelling, spending time across Ireland, particularly the West Coast and the Wild Atlantic Way, and is a keen football fan and long-suffering Gillingham FC supporter. Great to have you onboard Anthony!
