Commercial Property Investment Acquisitions & Disposals

Investment agency for institutions, pension funds, property companies, private investors and developers across Central London and the UK.

Commercial property investment agents in London

Nightingale Partners is a firm of Chartered Surveyors based at 3 Mandeville Place in London's West End. We act as investment agents, advising UK and overseas institutional, banking and private clients who are looking to acquire and dispose of commercial property in Central London and nationwide.

Our clients include institutions such as Aviva Investors, RPMI Railpen and Wesleyan Assurance Society, listed property companies including LondonMetric, investment managers such as Orchard Street, and a wide range of family offices, private investors and developers. Many of our transactions are concluded off market, the result of relationships built over more than two decades working together.

Acquisitions

For buyers, we invest substantial time sourcing potential transactions both on and off market. We identify opportunities that match each client's return requirements and risk profile, underwrite the income and the asset management potential, and negotiate hard on price and terms. Recent Central London acquisitions include multi-let Grade A offices at 70 New Oxford Street, WC1 on behalf of Orchard Street IM and 48-49 Chancery Lane, WC2 for Aviva Investors.

Disposals

For sellers, we advise on timing, lotting and pricing, prepare the investment case, and run targeted marketing campaigns that reach the right institutional, private and overseas buyers. Our disposals have repeatedly achieved prices well in excess of quoting — from West End offices to regional retail, leisure and industrial investments.

Sectors we cover

  • Central London offices — West End, Midtown, the City and South Bank
  • Prime and high street retail, retail warehousing and leisure
  • Industrial and logistics, from multi-let estates to single-let distribution warehouses
  • Mixed-use, long-income and ground rent investments
  • Change-of-use and development opportunities

How we work

  1. 01

    Strategy

    We agree target sectors, lot sizes, returns and risk appetite — or, for sellers, the timing and pricing strategy that will maximise value.

  2. 02

    Sourcing

    Substantial time invested across our network of owners, agents and advisers to find on- and off-market opportunities before they are widely known.

  3. 03

    Underwriting & negotiation

    Rigorous appraisal of income, covenant, lease structure and asset management angles, then robust negotiation on price and terms.

  4. 04

    Execution & beyond

    We steer due diligence through to completion, then help implement the business plan agreed at the outset.
