We find real estate opportunities.
ABOUT US
Eccleston Capital is an independent Real Estate Investment Management, Asset Management and Consultancy business based in London.
Asset selection across today’s property markets requires a greater level of precision than ever before. Eccleston Capital specialises in working with investors to realise their strategic objectives.
We have a track record of advising institutions (including Aviva, The Church Commissioners, CBRE GI, Columbia Threadneedle and DTZ IM), private family offices and HNWIs on both buy-side and sell-side strategies, which encompass every facet of the process including marketing, the appointment of best-in-class specialist advisors when required and creation of efficient investment vehicles.
Our business was founded by Mark Phillipson who has been involved in c.£1bn of investment acquisitions, disposals and development forward fundings. Mark has a specialism in retail property, and through the Eccleston Capital network also advises on opportunities across a range of sectors.
Most recently, Eccleston Capital has advised private clients on the record-breaking sales of super prime, mixed-use assets on London’s King’s Road and Long Acre, and acquired value-orientated retail parks in the Midlands and South Coast, completing over £140m of transactions in the last 24 months.

Origination
In times of market disruption there is always mispricing, which presents an opportunity for both buyers and sellers.
We have identified specific asset types where we believe there is potential to invest with advantage.
Whilst we normally directly acquire property for clients, we do not sell property directly. Instead, we take instructions from our clients and work with those who do sales in the the specialist areas required, carefully selecting the right parties using our very extensive network of contacts in the commercial property sector built up over the last 37 years. We provide comprehensive advice on how achieve the most lucrative outcome using the best equipped professional team of advisors possible, in order to navigate what is invariably a complicated process.
