CORE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT & CONSULTANCY LIMITED

What CORE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT & CONSULTANCY LIMITED does

Core Property Management & Consultancy Limited is a Liverpool-headquartered firm of Chartered Surveyors providing commercial, residential, and mixed-portfolio property management, lettings, and consultancy services across the North West of England, with instructions extending into Devon and Scotland. Founded in 1999 by a team with prior working relationships of over 30 years, the firm serves three horizontal customer segments: commercial property owners (retail, office, industrial), residential property owners (including ASTs, regulated tenancies, and long leasehold interests), and clients with mixed residential and commercial portfolios. Service lines cover inspections, rent collection, service charge administration, health and safety compliance, tenant liaison, lettings marketing, and ancillary professional services such as rent reviews, Reinstatement Cost Assessments, and regulated tenancy re-registration.

The company operates as a traditional services business with no proprietary technology platform; day-to-day operations rely on standard industry tools for property management and client accounting, and the firm is regulated by RICS with Client Money Protection, Tenancy Deposit Scheme membership, Property Redress Scheme registration, GDPR compliance, and an anti-money laundering policy. It is a private limited company (Company Registration Number 3764466) and a subsidiary of Highneal Ltd (Company Registration Number 01912258), both registered at 7 Union Court, Liverpool L2 4SJ.

Revenue is generated through three mechanics: recurring percentage-based management fees (12% including VAT of gross rental receipts, billed monthly), one-off letting fees (75% of first month's rent including VAT), and a menu of professional service fees priced per transaction or per hour (e.g., £50–£360 incl. VAT). The firm employs 11–50 staff, including three Chartered Surveyors, and distributes services via a sales-led direct engagement model supplemented by referral relationships with other agents and auctioneers. Marketing is conducted primarily through the company website (corepmc.com).

Broad incumbents

• Knight Frank: Global real estate firm with UK residential and commercial property management, lettings and consultancy. Overlaps with Core's full-service offering, but operates far broader geographically and with a much larger team.
• Savills: Global real estate services firm with significant UK residential and commercial property management and consultancy practices. Comparable in service breadth, but at much greater scale and geographic reach than Core.
• Countrywide (Connells Group): Large UK residential property group offering lettings, management and surveying services. Comparable in residential management and lettings, but with national branch coverage and significantly greater scale.

Emerging players

• Arthur Online: PropTech platform providing property management software to letting agents and landlords. An emerging competitive substitute for traditional agents like Core, threatening the manual/standard-practice operating model.

Regional players

• Mason Owen: Liverpool and North West based chartered surveyors and property agents. Closely comparable in geography (NW England focus) and service mix (commercial, residential and consultancy), making it a strong local peer.
• Hunters Property Group: UK estate agency and lettings network with property management services. Comparable in residential management offering, particularly for landlords in regional markets like the North West.

Direct peers

• Northwood: UK franchised lettings and property management network with full management, tenant find and compliance services. Directly comparable to Core's residential management and lettings offering for individual landlords.
• Belvoir: UK franchised network offering residential lettings, full management and ancillary services to landlords. Directly comparable to Core's residential management business model and target customer (individual and portfolio landlords).
• Lambert Smith Hampton: UK-focused commercial property consultancy offering agency, property management and professional services across offices, retail and industrial. Directly comparable to Core's commercial management and consultancy offering, though operating at national scale.
• Eddisons: UK chartered surveyors and property management firm offering commercial management, agency and professional services. Directly comparable to Core's surveying-led, multi-segment property management model.
