"There’s a human element in the world of property that is too easily overlooked. As a partnership, we are neither owned by a bank, nor beholden to shareholders. This makes a crucial difference to the quality and impartiality of the advice we can provide. Indeed, as your partners in property, we act with integrity and always think about the bigger picture, providing personalised, clear and considered advice on all areas of property. A true partnership is also a balanced one, and we are committed to making our business inclusive and diverse, giving individuals the opportunity to perform at their very best as well as being truly recognised for the value they bring.
This year we’re celebrating our 125th anniversary, an opportunity to take inspiration from our past and look forward to define our future – a future for positive growth, meaningful collaboration and action in shaping the built environment and its impact for good. Sustainability is a critical topic for Knight Frank. Recognising that 40% of carbon emissions come from the built environment, we are committed to combatting this head on. With ESG increasingly front and centre of property investment decisions, we aim to become influencers in improving the property sector through our initiatives.”
Alistair Elliott, Senior Partner & Group Chairman

Our integrated global network and ability to identify unique investment opportunities, combined with our unrivalled access to high net-worth individuals (HNWIs), places us in an unparalleled position of strength.
Whether it is sovereign wealth or the upwards of 3,000 individuals we have dealt with personally with a net worth of more than US$100 million, our record of selling trophy homes is second-to-none and has enabled us to act for more than 600 billionaires.
Project Marketing & International Project Marketing: Through our Project Marketing service we provide developers of mid- to high-end projects with research, consultancy, marketing and sales. Unit values targeted are those in excess of US$350,000, in locations where long-term value is ensured, such as London, Hong Kong, Singapore, Vancouver, Melbourne, New York, Miami and Dubai.

We act for institutional, private equity, family offices, sovereign wealth and real estate companies in the cross-border acquisition and disposal of property globally.
