Professionals dedicated to the property industry.

Sunny Nahal

Founder
With more than 17 years’ experience in the UK property market, Sunny has a passion for London homes and new build developments.

Taking on a Sales & Marketing Director role early on in his career, starting a development business was a natural step for Sunny. He discovered a like-mindedness in his founding partner Tom Shaw and the pair have worked seamlessly together to build a highly successful company, while carving out distinct and essential roles for themselves

Experienced in land assessment and procurement, Sunny is focused in his goal to grow SN Developments and is hands-on in his approach to sourcing new sites and taking them through the planning process. He has an innate knowledge of both planning and construction matters and takes part in all essential project delivery decisions.

Sunny’s strengths lie in working with vendors and agents to secure deals and in finding sites to which the company can add value.

Tom Shaw

Founder

Tom has been working within the real estate sector for over 15 years and has built a wealth of knowledge and contacts through his personal and professional investments, both nationally and internationally.

Spending a number of years working across Europe, Tom specialised in the purchase, sale and management of millions of pounds worth of distressed residential properties before he and Sunny came together to launch SN Developments.

Tom has been involved with businesses in many sectors in the UK and overseas, giving him a broad knowledge-base to draw from. With a focus on physical assets, he has been involved with a range of opportunities; from biomass plantations and mining operations in Africa, to the bulk purchasing of undervalued property in Portugal.

His strengths lie in structuring and managing the funding of projects from private and public equity and finance.

He has real passion for construction and interior design and takes a keen interest in each step of the design and delivery process; from day to day site matters, to design decisions.

His involvement with each new site – from initial procurement to full delivery – is indispensable and he is a highly valued member of the team. Tasked with preparing tender and contract documents, cost control and performing risk and value management, Michael’s inquisitive nature and precise attention to detail has considerably enhanced and evolved SN Development’s final build products.
