We are central London development experts who form world-class teams to deliver world-class buildings.

CO—RE works with property investors to make the most of their existing assets and discover new opportunities. We bring unparalleled experience and vision to the process, maximising the development opportunity at every stage for every client.

Over the past 20 years, CO—RE has advised on over 12.5 million sq ft with an investment value of over £10bn.

We bring the same rigour to managing assets as we do to developing them, shaping every plan around our clients’ ambitions and each asset’s unique characteristics. Deep sector knowledge and an entrepreneurial mindset let us see value where others do not, and we work collaboratively with clients, occupiers and advisors to realise it.

We own the business plan and annual budgets, track performance and continually seek to identify opportunities to add value. We manage occupier relationships directly, focusing on engagement, satisfaction and retention alongside rent collection, occupier fit-outs and occupier variations. We take responsibility for property management, site operations, accounting, valuation, legal and leasing across the asset, and we lead on operations, ESG and digital, mobilising development projects and delivering ESG innovation, placemaking, PR and digital strategy.

Because the same team sees a building through development and into operation, every decision is made with the whole life of the asset in view.

Our approach is comprehensive and analytical. We regularly undertake options appraisals on schemes to determine development viability and inform our strategy.

Our constant presence in all parts of the market – acquisition, leasing, procuring, construction and demolition – gives us special insight into analysing schemes and assessing risk.

We have a first-hand deep understanding of the crucially important and ever-evolving occupier market, with an intimate knowledge of occupier trends, their demands and the corresponding implications for office design.

We deliver schemes incorporating commercial, residential, retail and other complementary uses. Increasingly exciting interplay exists between these different sectors, and our extensive experience perfectly positions us to capitalise on these opportunities.

Our integrated project management approach ensures effective communication, enabling each CO—RE project to both meet delivery objectives and achieve its development vision.

It is fundamental to our business to create high quality, high value developments that also protect and enhance the built environment and people within it, going beyond compliance measures, to actively engage with new thinking and research.
