With over 30 years of experience in the London property landscape, we specialize in making the 'impossible' deal happen. Whether it's complex head lease restructuring or large-scale development consultancy, we provide the creative intelligence needed to unlock value where others see obstacles.
Cutting Through the Complexity of Central London
The London property landscape is notoriously complicated, but we believe it doesn’t have to be. At Kauffmans, we provide strategic real estate intelligence designed to flatten obstacles and simplify the complex. Whether you are an institution, a family office, or a property company, we act as your creative and pragmatic partner in the city.
We don't just provide professional services; we provide a fresh perspective. When others see bureaucracy or a dead end, we see an opportunity to restructure, rethink, and resolve.
Three Decades of Real Estate Intelligence
Led by our Co-Founder Howard Kauffman, our team has been deeply embedded in the London property scene since the 1980s. We bring over 30 years of experience to the table, having played a pivotal role in some of the city’s most high-profile and ambitious deals.

From Head Leases to Major Developments
We specialise in the areas where property deals often get stuck. Our expertise spans the entire lifecycle of an asset:
- Strategic Advisory: We help you streamline operations and unlock hidden value through innovative structuring.
- Head Lease Restructuring: We navigate the intricate twists and turns of landlord and tenant obligations to find mutually beneficial outcomes.
- Development Consultancy: From planning and workplace strategy to construction, we steer projects to the finish line with minimum fuss.
- Capital Markets: We advise on funding, buying, and selling, acting as the 'interpreter' for complex financial transactions.
A Track Record of Transformation
Our portfolio is a testament to our ability to nudge major deals into existence. We are proud to have worked on projects that have redefined the London skyline and its commercial hubs:
"Principal Place in EC2 was Shoreditch’s first large floorplate development. It acted as the catalyst that attracted Amazon, which in turn drew hundreds of other exciting occupiers to the area."
Other notable projects include The Stage (EC2), which transformed South Shoreditch with an acre of public space and 350,000 sq ft of commercial accommodation, and the Met Building (E1), where we structured a complex simultaneous acquisition and build contract in an uncertain market.
Our Commitment Beyond the Deal
We believe in paying it forward. Our work naturally helps local communities through regeneration and job creation, but we wanted to do more. Through The Kauffmans Foundation, we distribute at least 5% of our income to causes close to us and our clients. When you work with us, you are supporting a business that is committed to making a tangible impact on the commu
