WE MAKE IT EASY

Cluttons is an international real estate services company. Whether managing the portfolio of a global technology giant, offering funding advice, selling land, valuing an unusual property or letting a home, we make it easy. We don t wait to be asked. We deliver ideas and solutions that improve the efficiency and value of your assets. And when it comes to advice, we cut to the chase, because we know the best decision is an informed decision. There through every step of the process, we keep things straightforward, simplifying complex challenges and ensuring your peace of mind.

A NEW LEASE OF LIFE Cluttons spotted an opportunity for one of its pension fund clients to increase the value of its asset in the heart of Westminster. By re-gearing the lease to facilitate early vacant possession we were able to capitalise on the strong residential conversion market. The sale of the property to a private overseas investor achieved a substantial capital gain for our client that was 60% higher than its value as an office investment.

Established in 1765, Cluttons was one of the early pioneers of surveying and has been instrumental in shaping modern professional practice and new working methodologies over the last 250 years. Today the spirit of innovation continues through our work at the forefront of industries like telecommunications. A STRONG COMMITMENT TO SERVICE AND INNOVATION

Partner-led Cluttons remains one of the few major independent firms of surveyors, which allows us to focus on serving our clients needs.

Our ability to offer good judgement, informed by technical expertise and depth of experience, gives our clients peace of mind. Excellent service We are committed to delivering an excellent service, which is one of the reasons that our clients strongly recommend us to others.

RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL PROPERTY EXPERTISE

Cluttons operates in both the residential and commercial property markets. Our services include residential sales and lettings, commercial leasing and investment, consultancy, property and facilities management and valuation. We have a strong presence in London, the Middle East and internationally. We have particular expertise in providing tailored solutions for TMT, investors, utilities, charities, banks, private clients, corporate occupiers, developers and the London Estates.

A SMART INVESTMENT By using our strong connections in the Middle East, along with insight into the shortage of student accommodation in London, we advised a Middle East investment bank on a structured finance transaction for a high-quality, 18-storey student accommodation scheme in Aldgate, City of London. The undersupply of student accommodation creates a market opportunity for specialist developers and for investors to realise attractive returns on capital through the development process.

Cluttons has the agility to quickly assemble a team of the right people to solve the task at hand. Our partner-led teams combine both technical expertise and experience which means that we can offer clients valuable advice backed by good judgement. We know that getting the job done efficiently and delivering results for our clients is ultimately what matters. STRENGTH AND DEPTH
