Mark Allan Property Consultants Ltd

Strategic Lease Advisory for the UK’s Commercial Sector

We founded Mark Allan Property Consultants (MAPC) in 2014 with a clear mission: to provide high-quality, director-level property advice that cuts through the noise. With over 60 years of combined experience at the highest levels of the industry, we help our clients navigate the complexities of commercial leases, ensuring every decision aligns with their broader business goals.

Whether you are a business looking for your next distribution hub or an investor managing a supermarket portfolio, we provide the strategic insight needed to protect your interests and improve your bottom line.

Tenant-Only Representation for Offices and Industrial Space

Our Director, Mark Allan, brings over 25 years of experience to the table. Having previously served as a Partner and Head of Lease Advisory at Cushman & Wakefield, Mark now focuses his expertise on acting solely for tenants.

We act as your strategic partner for:

• Acquisitions: Finding and securing the right space on the best possible terms.
• Lease Re-gearing: Renegotiating existing terms to align with your current business cycle.
• Rent Reviews: Ensuring you aren't paying a penny more than market value.
• Dispute Resolution: Resolving complex lease issues with professional authority.

Mark is also a Chairman on the RICS panel for the Assessment of Professional Competence, helping shape the next generation of Chartered Surveyors.

Specialist Supermarket Consultancy for Landlords

In 2025, we welcomed Peter Balnave to the team, adding a powerful new dimension to our firm. Peter is a Fellow of the RICS and a Member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators with 35 years of experience.

Unlike our office and industrial work, Peter acts solely for landlords and investors within the supermarket sector. His deep market knowledge across Scotland and the UK makes us one of the few niche consultancies capable of providing such specialized, high-stakes advice in the retail investment space.

Why Our Director-Led Approach Wins

When you hire us, you get us. We don't pass your files down to junior staff. You receive personal, senior-level attention from professionals who have spent decades at the top of their field.

"We act openly, honestly, and always in your best interests to drive results that save you time, money, and stress."

Beyond the Transaction

We believe property consultancy is about more than just signing a lease. We assist our clients with everything from market analysis and site selection to coordinating dilapidations and managing office refurbishments. Our goal is to maintain your "business as usual" while we handle the heavy lift
