PROPERTY consultancy PMP has opened an office in London as it looks to capitalise on strong interest in the Scottish market among funds based in the city.
Joe Dunn, head of project management at Edinburgh-based PMP, said the company’s experience showed lots of investors were keen to back commercial developments in Scotland.
He noted one client had bought three properties in Glasgow in the last three years. PMP has an office in Glasgow.
The company expects the London opening will help it maintain its strong growth rate.
PMP has doubled staff numbers in the last three years to more than 20, in line with turnover.
It has worked on a range of significant property developments including Mercer Real Estate’s plan to convert the former Glasgow City Council building at 112 Ingram Street into commercial space.
Mr Dunn noted PMP is providing project management services on the planned Leith Distillery and the conversion of a former school into an aparthotel in Edinburgh’s New Waverley area.
“The delivery of these two projects signifies a strong and consistent interest in commercial development and that Edinburgh maintains its position as one of the most desirable locations for investment in Europe,” he said.
PMP was founded in 1992. The company works on projects across the UK
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
