Chris Brain Associates
Clevedon
6 Brackenwood Road, Clevedon, Avon, BS21 7AB, Clevedon
We are in the transformation business. We help UK public sector organisations turn property portfolios into strategic successes using our unique 6 P’s methodology. With 44 years of experience, we bridge the gap between high-level strategy and the essential 'small things' that drive change.
We understand that for a public sector organisation, your property portfolio is the backbone of your service delivery. But we also know the reality: managing that estate within a challenging political and financial climate is incredibly complex.
At Chris Brain Associates, we don’t just provide advice; we are your transformation partners. We work alongside local authorities to develop change programmes that shift culture, mindset, and decision-making. Whether you are looking for a total estate overhaul or need to refine your asset valuation processes, we bring an intimate understanding of how local government actually works.
Why Public Sector Leaders Partner With Us
We believe that big strategic shifts only happen when you get the small things right along the way. Our approach is grounded in over four decades of hands-on experience and a deep-rooted public sector ethos.

The 6 P’s: A Proven Framework for Success
Our work is guided by the unique 6 P’s methodology developed by Chris Brain and detailed in his best-selling book, The Property Strategy Handbook. This framework provides a structured process to create a property strategy that your entire organisation owns. We don't believe in off-the-shelf reports; we help you build a strategy that reflects your specific local goals and challenges.
Join the Asset Valuation Circle
Valuation is often the most technical hurdle for local authority finance and property teams. To solve this, we created the Asset Valuation Circle—a subscription-based community providing 24/7 access to modular training, live labs, and a confidential 'email hotline' for tricky scenarios.
"We are here to help you grow with experience. Our mission is to empower public sector teams with the skills and frameworks they need to manage their assets with total confidence."
