We are a boutique consultancy dedicated to the central London commercial market. From securing high-spec offices for the knowledge economy to navigating complex lease renewals, we provide the hands-on expertise and local insight that larger firms often overlook.
Your Boutique Partners in Central London Commercial Property
We don't just list buildings; we navigate the complexities of the London market to find the right fit for your business or investment. Led by David Shapiro, Ashurst Real Estate provides a personal, senior-led service that prioritises results over volume.
We operate at the heart of the city's most dynamic districts, offering a level of local granularity that only a specialist boutique can provide. Whether you are a landlord looking to dispose of an asset or a tenant seeking a new creative hub, we bring a tenacious, problem-solving approach to every instruction.
Specialists in the King’s Cross and Holborn Knowledge Economy
We have a deep-rooted presence in the "Knowledge Quarter"—the hub of academic, scientific, and tech innovation spanning King’s Cross, Bloomsbury, and Shoreditch. We understand the unique requirements of tech, media, and research organisations.
Our recent work includes the release of the newly constructed Acorn House on Gray’s Inn Road and the successful sale of Tankerton Works in King’s Cross. We thrive on matching forward-thinking occupiers with spaces that foster growth and collaboration.
More Than Just an Agency
Our expertise extends far beyond simple transactions. We act as your strategic advocates in all areas of commercial property management and consultancy:
- Lease Renewals & Rent Reviews: We handle the "tests of endurance," from navigating disappearing solicitors to resolving complex service charge disputes and failed M&E systems.
- Asset Management: We provide clear, actionable advice to maximise the value and performance of your commercial holdings.
- Expert Witness Services: We offer professional, evidence-based testimony for property disputes and valuations.
