One of Bristol’s most prominent property agents, Philip Morton, has launched his own niche independent consultancy after more than 25 years working for some of the region’s largest agencies.
Morton Property Consultants is providing advice predominately on office agency, both transactional and advisory, with services spanning office relocation, workplace strategy, lease advisory, disposal, development, refurbishment, investment and portfolio services. 
During his career Philip, pictured, has worked on some of the Bristol’s highest-profile office deals. Having qualified as a chartered surveyor in 1994, he established a strong reputation for his agency experience, working for international property consultants in London such as Cushman & Wakefield, before moving to Bristol, where he was head of office agency at Chesterton and DTZ before joining CBRE, where he was most recently a senior director.
During his career, he has advised a significant number of institutional funds, developers, property companies and private individuals, as well as a wide range of occupiers, including those in the technology, media and telecom and creative sectors.
Philip’s market experience has enabled him to develop in-depth market knowledge and a diverse network of trusted industry contacts. He recently advised developer Commercial Estates Group (CEG) on the design and marketing of Aspire, one of Bristol’s most significant speculative office schemes, as well as advising on the masterplan for and letting of Bristol & Bath Science Park. He also advised PwC on the relocation of its Bristol offices from Clifton to Temple Quay.
Philip said: “I saw a real opportunity in the market for a niche office specialist, so I decided to launch a new consultancy to meet that demand.
“We are keen to support all those involved in the workplace from start-ups and scale-ups to more established firms looking to relocate or become more efficient by adopting a modern way of working.
“We can offer bespoke, impartial advice gained from many years of experience at a senior level, combined with a friendly, personal service. When critical decisions need to be made to ensure the company business plan is aligned to the property strategy, or an investment purchase or sale is carried out, it is so important that businesses have on board a trusted consultant offering an in-depth knowledge of the local marketplace.”
