Gryphon

What Gryphon does

Gryphon Property Partners is a privately held, boutique commercial property agency headquartered at 35 New Broad Street in the City of London, founded on 1 October 2012. The firm provides advisory and transactional services to occupiers, owners, developers, and investors in Central London commercial real estate, operating across 13+ named submarkets including the City of London, Canary Wharf, Midtown, West End, King's Cross, Shoreditch, Mayfair, Soho, Victoria, and Hammersmith & Chiswick. Its practice areas are Office Agency (tenant representation, landlord disposal, leasing), Investment & Development (sourcing, disposal, feasibility), and Serviced Offices (search and advice across the UK, including Manchester, Birmingham, and Edinburgh), supported by professional services in lease renewals, rent reviews, and rating consultancy. Revenue is generated on a commission or transaction-fee basis rather than subscription or recurring pricing.

The firm is deliberately small, with 1-10 employees and a senior bench drawn from major UK and European real estate platforms. Founding partners and consultants are former senior figures at Cushman & Wakefield (including a former Managing Partner and City office Chairman), JLL (International Director), BNP Paribas Real Estate (Senior Director), CBRE (Executive Director, Corporate Capital Markets), LSH, DTZ, and Morgan Pepper, and the firm emphasises Partner-level involvement in every transaction as its core differentiator. Documented mandates span large enterprise occupiers (Pearson plc, Fidelity Investments, Brookfield Office Properties, CBRE Global Investors, Schjødt LLP, RELEX Ltd) and non-profits (Cancer Research UK / Cancer Research Horizons, Asthma + Lung UK), with deal sizes ranging from a few thousand square feet to 225,000 sq ft. The firm has no disclosed external funding, no parent or subsidiary structure, no proprietary technology platform, and no app or API product, making it a pure relationship-led advisory business whose primary assets are its people and case-study track record.
