Proximity Real Estate was built on one belief. Strong relationships, built over time, secure the best commercial properties before they ever reach the open market.
With a background in property and business, I built Proximity Real Estate to give serious operators and brands a private gateway to off-market commercial opportunities across Greater London & the Home Counties. Whether you are a leisure operator expanding your estate, a food to go brand securing new locations, or a nursery acquiring new premises, Proximity Real Estate acts as your dedicated acquisition partner, working exclusively on your behalf to find the right address at the right terms.
We understand that proximity is everything to your brand's success. Location, transport hubs, footfall, affluence, demographics and the competitive landscape all play a role in determining whether a business thrives or struggles. We breathe this. That is why we are called Proximity. We get close to your brand, understand it, walk through it, and give it an address in the right community to build a bond that you feel close to your heart.
If you have a requirement, I would like to speak with you.
