Knight Frank

Founded in London in 1896 as Knight Frank & Rutley, the firm began in valuations, surveying and auctions. It remains structured as a partnership rather than a shareholder-owned public company, with its global network coordinated from London.

Knight Frank advises on residential, commercial and capital-markets real estate, covering sales, leasing, acquisitions, valuations, development, occupier services and investment solutions. Its clients include private individuals, corporates, investors, developers and institutions.

The firm is especially strong in research-led property advice and prime residential markets, while its commercial platform spans offices, logistics, retail, development and strategic advisory work. Knight Frank Research publishes market data, indices, forecasts and analysis across global property markets.
