Who we are
Marchmont was founded in 1997 with a simple idea:
Commercial property advice should be practical, commercially focused and delivered by experienced professionals who stay personally involved throughout every instruction.
Nearly three decades later, that philosophy hasn’t changed.
We have advised occupiers, landlords and investors across the UK, helping them make property decisions that support their wider commercial objectives rather than simply solving today’s immediate challenge.
How we work
Commercial property is rarely just about buildings. Every lease, acquisition or refurbishment has wider implications for how a business operates. Our job is to help clients make those decisions with confidence.
Rather than offering standardised advice, we begin by understanding your organisation, your objectives and the role property plays within your business. Only then do we develop recommendations that reflect your commercial priorities, whether that’s reducing occupational costs, improving operational flexibility, managing risk or supporting future expansion.
As an independent firm of Chartered Surveyors, we combine strategic advice with practical delivery. Our services span the full commercial property lifecycle, from acquisitions and agency to lease advisory, building consultancy, project management, facilities management and portfolio strategy. Whether acting on a single instruction or managing a national property portfolio, our focus remains the same: providing clear, commercially informed advice that creates long-term value.
Why Marchmont
Clients choose Marchmont because they know who they will be working with. We don’t separate business development from delivery or pass instructions through multiple layers of management. The directors who win the work remain actively involved throughout each instruction, providing continuity, accountability and direct access whenever it’s needed.
Although our offices are based in London and Cardiff, we work with clients right across the UK. Many relationships have developed over years, sometimes decades, not just because we promise exceptional service, but because we consistently deliver practical advice, respond quickly and become a trusted extension of our clients’ own teams.
Commercial property is rarely static. Businesses evolve, markets change, and portfolios need to adapt. Our role is to help clients navigate those changes with confidence, combining technical expertise with commercial judgement and an understanding of the realities of running successful organisations.
Nearly thirty years after Marchmont was founded, those principles remain unchanged. We believe the best property advice comes from understanding the business behind the buildings and through long-term relationships based on trust, expertise and results.
